Emtek Tuscany Bronze Petal Cabinet Knob, Schaub Collection

Three diameters: 1 inch, 1-1/4 inch, and 1-3/4 inch. The 1 inch works well on smaller drawer fronts and glass-front upper doors, while the 1-3/4 inch gives a bigger grip on wide drawers and pantry doors. All three sizes come in both Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB).

Two finishes: Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB). Both are offered in all three diameters, so you can mix a small knob on upper doors with a larger one on drawer banks and keep the finish consistent through the room. Both belong to Emtek's Tuscany Bronze collection, which means they also coordinate with other Tuscany Bronze door hardware.

It is a knob, not a pull, so it mounts on a single centered hole with the one supplied screw. If your fronts are already drilled for two holes on centers, a knob will not cover that prep. Schaub's Cafe Collection knobs, models 10030 and 10040, are 1 inch knobs listed at 7/8 inch center to center if you need a two-hole footprint.

The Petal knob's largest size is 1-3/4 inch, and the Deltana KRB175 is a round knob with a groove in solid brass at a 1-3/4 inch diameter, so it lands on the same size with a plain round profile rather than the Petal's Tuscany styling. Both are knobs, not pulls, so the door or drawer front needs only the single center bore either way.

Not necessarily a drop-in. The Schaub 10030 Cafe Modern Oval Slot is specified with a 7/8 inch center to center dimension, which points to a two-point mount rather than the single center screw the Emtek Tuscany Bronze Petal knob uses. On an existing single-bore door you would want a single-screw knob such as the Deltana KRB175 or the Delaney solid brass knob instead.

A mounting screw ships with each knob, so nothing extra is needed for a standard cabinet door or drawer front. On unusually thick fronts or where a knob is going through a backplate, you may need a longer machine screw than the one supplied.

Brass construction, finished in bronze. That matters on cabinetry that gets daily use, since a solid brass body holds threads at the screw boss far better than a zinc diecast knob does. By comparison, the Schaub 1200 Modo knob is built from zinc and aluminum.

The Petal knob is a residential product. For multi-family unit turns, model homes, and high-end residential millwork it is the right category of hardware. For heavy institutional casework, look at a heavy-duty knob such as the Deltana KRB175, a 1-3/4 inch solid brass round knob with a groove.

The Petal is a shaped, petal-form knob in the Tuscany theme. For something simpler: Orca Hardware's CK-18032 Mission round knob or CK-19032 Whistler knob, the Schaub 131 Artifex round knob in Britannium at 1-1/2 inch diameter, or a plain Delaney solid brass cabinet knob. Each is a round profile rather than a sculpted one.

Two Schaub Cafe Collection knobs come in 1 inch diameter: the 10030 Modern Oval Slot and the 10040 Modern Oval, both solid brass and both listed at 7/8 inch center to center. They give an oval modern profile where the Emtek Petal at 1 inch is a floral Tuscany form in brass.

The Schaub 1200 Modo is a 16 mm cabinet knob built in zinc and aluminum, so it is an alternative when the brass substrate of the Emtek Tuscany Bronze Petal is not required. Note the Modo is a small 16 mm face, well under the Petal's 1 inch, 1-1/4 inch and 1-3/4 inch sizes.

The Schaub 131 Artifex is a round cabinet knob in Britannium at 1-1/2 inch diameter. The Emtek Tuscany Bronze Petal is brass with a petal form and is offered in 1 inch, 1-1/4 inch and 1-3/4 inch, in Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB). So the Artifex sits between two Petal sizes and differs in both material and finish family.

The Emtek Tuscany Bronze Petal knob is designated for residential use. If a heavier-duty knob is what the turn calls for, the Deltana KRB175 is described as heavy-duty solid brass in a 1-3/4 inch round, which is a more utilitarian choice for repeat-unit standardization.

SPC86096MB is the manufacturer part number for the 1-1/4 inch knob in Medium Bronze. Use that number when you are matching an existing run of cabinet hardware and need the same size and finish again.

The Petal knob is a Tuscany-themed decorative form in bronze finishes. If the millwork is mission or craftsman, the Orca Hardware CK-18032 Mission Round cabinet knob is drawn from an 18-Mission Collection and matches that vocabulary directly, while the Orca CK-19032 Whistler is a lodge-leaning alternative in the same knob format.

The Delaney Solid Brass Cabinet Knob is a straightforward solid brass knob for the same single-screw cabinet application, without the Petal's sculpted Tuscany profile. The Emtek Petal is brass as well and ships with its mounting screw, so the install approach is the same on either.
