Design and Craftsmanship

The Aurora Solid Brass Ball Knob in Gunmetal is designed to bring a refined, tactile detail to everyday hardware. Every brass ball knob in this collection is shaped from solid brass and finished by hand, so the surface catches light differently depending on the angle and the room. If the finish wears over time, brass shows underneath.

Material and Durability

Brass has been used in architectural hardware for centuries because of its natural resistance to corrosion and its ability to take a wide range of finishes, from bright golds to deep, oil rubbed tones. You can read more about the metal on Wikipedia’s brass overview. In a ball knob, that durability matters daily, since it is handled every time a door, drawer, or cabinet is opened, so the hardware needs to hold up to repeated use without loosening or discoloring.

Care and Maintenance

Solid brass hardware is low maintenance by design. A soft, dry or slightly damp cloth is usually enough to keep the Gunmetal finish looking clean, and abrasive pads or harsh chemical cleaners should be avoided since they can dull the surface over time. Wiping hardware down periodically, especially in kitchens and bathrooms where grease or moisture builds up, helps preserve the finish for years to come.

Why Choose Citadel Hardware

Citadel Hardware has been manufacturing solid brass hardware for over 32 years, and every brass ball knob we ship is checked against the standards described on our quality certifications page.

Where This Piece Works Best

This Gunmetal brass ball knob suits kitchen cabinetry, bathroom vanities, wardrobes, and furniture where a consistent brass finish is wanted throughout the room. Pair it with matching pulls, hinges, or knobs from the same finish family for a cohesive look, or mix warm and cool tones deliberately for a more layered, collected feel.

Sizing and Fit

Before ordering, measure your existing hole spacing and surface thickness against the dimensions listed above so the new ball knob lines up with your current cabinetry or doors. If you are replacing hardware across an entire room, ordering one piece first to confirm fit and finish before placing a larger order is a simple way to avoid returns.
