Hand-crafted to stand the test of time

Originally launched in 2006, the Vilhelm Lauritzen lever collection is re-designed in collaboration with d line as a small series that share a clean, Nordic look. Respecting the original aesthetic, the lever handle has been gently updated and is available in a variety of new colors and materials with a sense of enhanced quality. 

The Vilhelm Lauritzen Collection for d line occupies a special cross-sectional aesthetic and functional space between the studio’s contemporary work, the design tradition of its founder, Vilhelm Lauritzen, and d line. The shared ethos of the three forces is a strong focus on form, function and the ability to create design and a material quality that truly stand the test of time.

Gently update, the collection’s key piece is the lever handle, whose curved shape references a sleek leather strap, and ends with a soft dip for the thumb, making movement easy and smooth. The reimagining of this key d line collection is an upgrade in materiality, evolving from plastic and steel to the brand’s renowned and highly resistant AISI 316 stainless steel.

The collection include a door lever, thumb handle and toilet indicator.

Guaranteeing form and function for 20 years

As a result, the Vilhelm Lauritzen Collection for d line can now be recommended for large commercial or public spaces and carries a 20-year guarantee. Being EN1906 class 4-certified, its extreme durability makes it suitable for high-traffic situations, where both its functionality and timeless design are best expressed.

As with all d line products, the collection is sustainably produced in the brand’s own factory in Europe, where everything is machine crafted by hand, and formed of 50-to-70 percent recycled steel.
