What are brass hooks and knobs?
At Dims Studio, you’ll find a carefully curated range of brass hooks and knobs where quality and aesthetics go hand in hand. Every detail is thoughtfully considered – from material choice to finish and design language.

Materials and finishes
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, giving a warm, golden glow and a solid feel. At Dims Studio, you’ll find both polished brass with a shiny surface and brushed brass, which appears more matte and soft in expression. Some designs feature patinated details, giving the metal a subtle antique look. Many hooks and knobs are handmade, resulting in small variations and a lively character. Brass is durable, resistant to wear, and requires only light maintenance – a wipe with a soft cloth is often enough to keep its shine.
Sizes and dimensions
- Brass hooks typically range from 4 cm to 12 cm in length or diameter. Smaller models (approx. 4-6 cm) are great for tea towels, jewelry, or keys, while larger ones (8-12 cm) can hold jackets and bags.
- Knobs for cabinets and drawers usually measure between 2.5 and 5 cm in diameter, fitting kitchen doors and dressers alike.
- Deep hooks (5-8 cm from the wall) provide extra space to hang multiple items at once.
