Yes, plenty of brass knobs come with mounting hardware, typically a machine screw sized for standard cabinet and drawer thickness. You’ll often see options for 1-1/4 inch and 1-1/2 inch screws, or breakaway screws you trim to fit. Still, a number of brass knobs are knob-only, so check what’s included.
Brass knobs are typically made from solid brass or a base metal with a brass finish. Many solid brass knobs feel heavier and can be polished or allowed to patina, especially if unlacquered. Plenty of brass-finished knobs use zinc alloy, steel, or aluminum underneath, often with plated or lacquered surfaces like polished, satin/brushed, or antique brass.
Yes, brass knobs can be either solid brass or brass-plated, and both are widely available. Many brass knobs are solid brass for a heavier feel and the option to polish or let them develop a natural patina. Others are brass-plated over metals like zinc alloy or steel, often with lacquered finishes such as polished, satin, or antique brass.
Backplate choices for brass knobs range from no backplate at all to decorative escutcheons that sit behind the knob. You’ll find round, oval, and square backplates, plus rosette styles with beaded edges or vintage detailing. Finishes typically match the knob (polished, satin/brushed, antique, or unlacquered brass), and hole spacing varies by item.
You’ll find brass knobs in a wide range of styles, from clean modern shapes like round, dome, and bar knobs to vintage-inspired designs with ridges, rosettes, or ornate detailing. Several items lean farmhouse or industrial with knurled textures and aged finishes. Finish options often include polished, satin/brushed, unlacquered, and antique brass.
