A sense of anticipation, a bit of mystery, a warm welcome—a doorknob represents so much more than just a mechanism for getting from point A to point B, so choosing the right one can be critical. From geometric facets to intricate flourishes, these ten standouts practically beg to be handled. As the saying goes, “You never get a second chance to make a first impression.”
