More sculpture than hardware, this rare pair of vintage Italian cast bronze hands belongs squarely to the Brutalist moment, where form was reduced, gesture amplified, and function became secondary to presence. Conceived originally as door pulls for a commercial interior, they are a true left and right—modeled not with naturalistic softness, but with bold planes, simplified volumes, and an almost architectural sense of mass.

The hands feel intentionally unresolved, their forms abstracted just enough to register as modernist objects rather than literal anatomy. The bronze carries a rich, dark patina, catching light along sharp edges and flattened surfaces, evidence of both design conviction and time.
Freed from the door, they now operate as sculptural punctuation. On a coffee table, they read as cerebral and provocative. On a bookshelf or console, they introduce a distinctly European modernist tension—part utility, part monument. Objects that ask to be looked at, not used.
