"Inspired by the primal force of natural stone, The Rock is a faucet handle that is a tactile, expressive object that restores individuality and sensuality to the contemporary bathroom and kitchen landscape. Revisiting the iconic MEM series, the design introduces a bold, organically shaped handle, milled from solid metal with artisanal hand-finishing. Each piece becomes a singular creation, where industrial precision meets the intimacy of craft."
"The distinctiveness of The Rock lies in its meticulous production process. Each handle is milled from solid metal with CNC precision, then carefully hand-sanded and polished to reveal subtle variations of texture and shine. The process concludes with electroplating, which ensures durability and exclusive finishes such as Brushed Dark Platinum, Chrome, Brushed Bronze, or Durabrass (23kt gold), resulting in a component that transforms an everyday gesture into a sensory experience, in which weight, density, and materiality are directly perceived by the user."
Dornbracht introduces The Rock as the debut piece of Atelier Editions, a faucet handle inspired by natural stone that emphasizes individuality and sensuality in bathrooms and kitchens. The design revisits the MEM series with an organically shaped handle milled from solid metal and finished by hand so each piece is singular. Production combines CNC precision with hand-sanding, polishing, and electroplating to achieve varied textures and durable exclusive finishes like Brushed Dark Platinum, Chrome, Brushed Bronze, or Durabrass (23kt gold). The Your Rock concept enables handles in natural stones such as travertine and Nero Portoro and applies across product lines for customizable material continuity.
