There is nothing functionally wrong with it, but it doesn't stand out to anyone, and certainly not in a child's room. A new piece of furniture isn't worth it, painting is a weekend project, and the only thing that can be changed in ten minutes hangs on every drawer. If you want to change a piece of furniture without replacing it, you first change the handles – and you can decide whether the fitting should remain factual or become an idea in itself. This furniture knob takes the second option: a sculpturally modeled dog figure, available as a front and a rear part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes this furniture knob different\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo matching variants\u003c\/strong\u003e – available are the front part with head, ears, and front legs, and the rear part with tail and hind legs; when mounted on two adjacent drawers, it creates the impression that the dog is sticking out of the dresser. This idea only works if you buy both parts together.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eSculptural modeling with fur texture\u003c\/strong\u003e – facial wrinkles, ears, collar, and paws are worked out instead of merely suggested; this distinguishes the figure from flat-cast animal motifs, which from a meter away are only recognizable as a lump.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eLegs as gripping surface\u003c\/strong\u003e – the protruding front or hind legs can be grasped with two fingers, so the knob does not have to be gripped from above like a smooth dome.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolished surface in gold tone\u003c\/strong\u003e – the reflective surface creates a bright spot on white, light, or natural fronts and makes the figure recognizable from a distance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-hole mounting via a central pin\u003c\/strong\u003e – the figure is screwed from the back and thus fits existing knob holes without the need for new drilling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo heights for different fronts\u003c\/strong\u003e – the front part measures 6 cm, the rear part 4.5 cm, each with a width of 3 cm (2.3 and 1.7 × 1.1 inches); the lower height of the rear part corresponds to the anatomy and is not a selection error.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it's made for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor children's rooms and teenagers' rooms where the dresser should be more than just a storage unit. For families with dogs, where the motif is part of the household. For anyone who wants to make a simple mass-produced furniture item from a furniture store more individual. For tenants who are not allowed to make structural changes but can unscrew handles and reattach them when moving out. For furniture that has been newly painted and needs matching fittings. For hallway dressers, shoe cabinets, and wardrobe furniture, where a detail shapes the entrance area. For nightstands and sideboards in the living room. For DIY enthusiasts who refurbish old furniture. For dog boarding kennels, veterinary practices, dog groomers, and pet stores that want to match their decor thematically. For vacation rentals and guest rooms with their own character. As a gift for dog owners, for moving in or for Christmas. Important selection note: The price is for \u003cstrong\u003ea single knob\u003c\/strong\u003e. If you want to achieve the effect with a front and back part, order both variants – they are not supplied as a pair. Installation is via \u003cstrong\u003ea single hole\u003c\/strong\u003e; if there are two existing holes for a bail handle, the knob cannot be easily adapted. Measure the front surface before ordering: At 6 cm height, the front part requires a drawer that is significantly higher. Whether screws are included and in what length can be found in the product selection. A note for children's rooms: The figure has protruding legs and ears on which clothes can get caught – it's worth considering this for toddlers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMeasuring, mounting, proper care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore purchasing, unscrew the old fitting and check whether the front has one or two holes. If there are two existing holes, either switch to a bail handle or close the holes with wooden dowels, glue, and subsequent sanding. Measure the front thickness to ensure the screw length is correct: Screws that are too short won't grip, and screws that are too long will protrude inside and hit the drawer contents. When mounting, support the front from below and do not hold onto the knob. Insert the screw from the back and initially only tighten it hand-tight. Before final tightening, check the alignment: With a figure with single-hole mounting, this is the weak point, because a slightly twisted mounted dog is immediately noticeable, unlike a round knob. For two fronts with a front and back part, also ensure that both are at the same height and point in the same direction, otherwise the connection will be lost. \u003cstrong\u003eDo not use a cordless drill at a high setting\u003c\/strong\u003e, as overtightened screws can destroy the thread in the wood material. For new holes, mark the positions, align with a spirit level, and work with a low speed and a sharp wood drill bit. After a few weeks, retighten all screw connections once. \u003cstrong\u003eCare of the polished surface:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and always wipe dry afterwards. Remove dust in the recesses between ears, folds, and legs with a dry soft brush; do not scratch with a needle. Do not use metal polish, scouring milk, vinegar cleaner, or citric acid – if the surface is coated, the coating will be removed, and light spots will appear on the raised areas that cannot be blended. Wipe off grease splatters promptly before they dry. Do not abruptly load the figure and do not use it as a clothes hook, as legs and ears are subject to localized stress with single-hole mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor anyone who wants to change a piece of furniture and needs a screwdriver instead of a craftsman.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bolania","offers":[{"title":"Dog's Head","offer_id":52360339849432,"sku":"MÖB-HUNDEKOPF-C98X27","price":34.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dog's Tail","offer_id":52360339882200,"sku":"-HUNDESCHWANZ-L86F56","price":34.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/9221\/2440\/files\/moebelknopf-in-hundeform-aus-metall-figuerlicher-griff-fuer-kommode-kinderzimmer-und-schrankmoeb-hundekopf-c98x27-7566605.png?v=1789123813","url":"https:\/\/bolania.de\/en-gb\/products\/mobelknopf-in-hundeform-aus-metall-figurlicher-griff-fur-kommode-kinderzimmer-und-schrank","provider":"Bolania","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
