Is this knob solid brass or brass-plated?

It is solid brass with a hand-applied antique finish. The maker calls the patina "living," meaning it continues to darken and shift with handling rather than staying sealed and uniform.

Will the patina wear off or change color?

It is meant to change. The antique finish is not a fixed lacquer, so expect the tone to deepen and vary slightly across knobs over months of use. If you want every knob to match exactly forever, this is not the right finish.

What size hole does it need?

It mounts with the included screw through a standard cabinet knob hole, typically 3/16 inch. The knob itself is 1 1/4 inches in diameter and projects 1 1/4 inches from the door face.

Can I order fewer than three?

No. The maker sets a minimum order of three knobs, which lets you mix and match finishes and sizes in one order.

Is $9.99 a good price for this knob?

It is the best new price across the three stores that list it, as of November 7, 2026. Hand-finished solid brass knobs commonly run $8 to $15 each, so $9.99 sits at the low end.
