The Beacon Knob by BEX is a timeless mushroom knob with a smooth, pillowed crown swelling gently over a turned, collared stem. Free of ornament, it relies on proportion alone — a familiar, welcoming shape polished to heirloom quality. At 2-3/16 inches across, the solid brass Beacon pairs with the Bordeaux, Classic Round, Hawthorne, and Ellington rosettes and completes New England colonials and traditional estates.
Solid brass throughout and balanced on a hand-turned stem, the Beacon is built to be the knob a house keeps through every repainting and remodel.
