Siena is a round rosette handle designed by Nicola Novelletto in collaboration with Roberto Volonterio. Together with Orvieto, it was born from research into classical forms, reinterpreted through careful work on proportion and balance. The project preserves the signs of tradition and the memory of the past, translating them into a door handle with a measured language, capable of dialoguing with contemporary interiors.
The Orvieto and Siena handles were conceived with Roberto Volonterio. Both handles originate from research into “classical” forms. The proportions and balances make these door and window handles extremely contemporary while preserving the signs of tradition and the memory of the past.
