At Valli & Valli / ASSA ABLOY we aim to add a whole new dimension to design which will inspire and excite the senses through ranges that reflect the world we live in. Our designs are unique, and combine traditional elements with youthful interpretations of classics.
Manufactured by skilled craftsmen in the Valli workshop and individually hand finished to precise standards, we place emphasis on the process as much as the final product. Several handles belonging to the Valli range are designed in Zirtanio treated brass alloy, and backed by a thirty-year guarantee. From chic minimalist to decorative and traditional, each piece meets the high quality interior specifications which are a benchmark for architects, producing handles that are as creative as they are versatile.
