Refresh Your Interior for the New Year with Handmade Copper Details

December 15, 2025

A new year is the perfect opportunity to refresh your interior and introduce thoughtful design changes that make a lasting difference. You don’t need a full renovation to update your space, well-chosen details such as handles, storage solutions and handcrafted accessories can completely change how an interior looks and feels.

At Proper Copper Design, we specialise in handmade copper, brass and chrome products made in the UK, designed to bring character, durability and timeless style to residential and commercial interiors.

Update Furniture with Handcrafted Copper and Brass Handles

Replacing cabinet and furniture handles is one of the fastest and most effective ways to refresh your interior. High-quality metal handles add texture, contrast and visual interest while improving everyday functionality. Copper handles introduce warmth and work especially well with painted cabinetry and natural materials.

Brass handles offer a classic finish that suits both modern and traditional interiors.

Chrome handles are ideal for contemporary spaces, reflecting light and creating a clean, structured look.

For more distinctive interiors, our collection includes rope handles, wood and copper combinations, marbled finishes and antique copper designs. These pieces are ideal for bespoke furniture, statement cabinets and unique design projects. For bold, modern interiors, matte black handles paired with copper detailing create a strong visual contrast.

Improve Kitchen Functionality with Storage Solutions

The kitchen is one of the most used spaces in any home, making organisation and material quality especially important. Refreshing your kitchen with well-designed storage can improve both usability and appearance. Our kitchen storage collection includes wall-mounted and ceiling Pot and Pan Rack solutions, all designed to help you make the most of your space. Made from materials such as copper, brass and chrome, these storage solutions combine practical design with refined craftsmanship.
