This “GEOMETRI 1” enameled door handle in two tones of blue arrived today.

Verner Panton designed this pattern in 1960 and the swiss company Emaillerie Corgémont started to make the panels in 1966.

I guess this is a special version because I have never seen any of Verners enamel panels made as a door handles before. It has an original back panel made in the same material but the spacers you see in metal are newly made..

The door handle measures 18 x 18 cm and the colour matches the blue enamel wall panels I have since earlier.

 

I just founded an interesting article in the official Verner Panton refence website about these panels. The magazine Flair published this article in 1969:
