Berenson Forte Collection

Berenson Forte Collection cabinet hardware

The Berenson Forte Collection is a transitional knob-and-pull line that scales from small cabinet pulls up to long appliance pulls in one shared profile. Berenson supplies decorative cabinet hardware across many named families, and Forte is one of its clean, full-range transitional options.

What identifies the Forte look

The line carries a smooth, gently arched pull with rounded transitions and no ornament, paired with knobs in two sizes, a small and a large round face. Pulls run a 4-inch and 6-inch center for cabinets and step up to an 18-inch appliance pull for refrigerator and pantry panels. The styling stays quiet, with the soft arch and the matching small-and-large knob set carrying the look. Verona bronze, oil-rubbed bronze, and brushed nickel cover warm, dark-warm, and neutral readings.

Buying considerations

Forte suits transitional kitchens, baths, and built-ins where you want one profile from small drawers through appliance fronts without a style break. The two knob sizes let you scale up on large doors and down on small ones while keeping the same round face. The 18-inch appliance pull matches the cabinet pulls, so a fridge panel stays in line. Verona and oil-rubbed bronze warm the room against stained wood; brushed nickel keeps it current against paint. Run knobs on doors and arched pulls on drawers and appliances for a uniform program, and hold one finish across the run so the line stays coherent. The 4-inch pull suits smaller drawers while the 6-inch handles wider fronts before the 18-inch appliance pull takes over. The small knob fits narrow doors and the large knob anchors wider ones, keeping the round face in proportion. Oil-rubbed bronze runs darkest and most period; brushed nickel keeps the same shape current against painted cabinetry. The smooth arch also gives a comfortable full-hand grip on heavier pots-and-pans drawers.
