Atlas Homewares Nautical/Ocean Collection cabinet hardware
The Atlas Homewares Nautical/Ocean Collection is a whimsical sea-themed line built from cast marine forms: fish and mermaids. Nautical/Ocean renders each piece as a recognizable sea creature, so the hardware reads as a small figurine on the cabinet rather than an abstract pull, and that figural quality is the line's identity.
What identifies the Nautical/Ocean look
The line includes a fish pull at 3-inch center-to-center, a fish knob about 2-1/4 inches, and a mermaid knob roughly 2-1/2 inches that comes handed in left and right versions so the figure can face the cabinet's center. The castings carry modeled scales and flowing detail deep enough to read across a room. The fish and mermaid forms are distinct, so a kitchen can mix both and still feel themed rather than random. Finishes lean coastal and warm: Venetian bronze, burnished bronze, rust, pewter, and brushed nickel, so the figures sit against driftwood and aged tones.
Buying considerations
Nautical/Ocean fits beach houses, lake cabins, kids' baths, and coastal-themed kitchens, and works best on a feature run where the figures are seen up close rather than scattered thin. The mermaid knob is handed, so pair a left and right across a double cabinet for a mirrored look and count quantities against your door swings before ordering. Use the fish pull on drawers and the fish or mermaid knob on doors so the theme repeats across the fronts. Pewter and brushed nickel keep it cooler; the bronzes and rust warm it toward driftwood and aged wood. Hold one finish across the room so the mix of fish and mermaid still reads as one collection rather than collected pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cabinet hardware pieces are included in the Atlas Homewares Nautical/Ocean Collection?
The collection includes a fish pull with a 3-inch center-to-center spacing, a fish knob measuring approximately 2-1/4 inches, and a mermaid knob measuring roughly 2-1/2 inches. The mermaid knob is made in left- and right-handed versions so the figure can be oriented to face the center of a cabinet. All pieces feature modeled scales and detailed casting.
What finishes does the Nautical/Ocean Collection come in, and how do they affect the look?
Available finishes include Venetian bronze, burnished bronze, rust, pewter, and brushed nickel. The bronze and rust finishes lean warm and pair naturally with driftwood tones and aged wood cabinetry, while pewter and brushed nickel produce a cooler, more contemporary coastal feel. Keeping a single finish across all pieces in a space helps the mix of fish and mermaid hardware read as one cohesive collection.
How does the Nautical/Ocean Collection compare to more traditional coastal hardware like simple bar pulls in brushed nickel?
Traditional bar pulls in brushed nickel are abstract and finish-forward, relying on form and sheen rather than imagery to suggest a coastal setting. The Nautical/Ocean Collection takes a figural approach — each piece is a recognizable sea creature with modeled detail — so the hardware functions more like a small decorative object on the cabinet face. This makes it a stronger choice for spaces where the theme should be explicit, such as a beach house or kids' bath, rather than subtly implied.
Where is the Nautical/Ocean Collection best suited, and how should the pieces be distributed across cabinet fronts?
The collection is well suited to beach houses, lake cabins, kids' bathrooms, and coastal-themed kitchens. It works best concentrated on a feature run of cabinetry where the figural detail can be seen up close, rather than spread thinly across a large kitchen. A practical pairing is the fish pull on drawers and the fish or mermaid knob on doors, which repeats the theme consistently across all cabinet fronts.
