cannot remove bathroom faucet handle

[trebordor]

I have a 20 year old bathroom faucet that leaks and needs a new washer but I don't know how to remove the handle. No screw, cap, or allen key hole is visible, and neither is the name of the manufacturer. Seems like the only options are to pry off the handle or turn it counter-clockwise until it unscrews. Anyone know the answer? I attached a picture. Thanks!

If i'm not mistaken that is a Grohe fuacet -- Grab the handle firmly and pull very hard stright up.

Wow. I have the exact same handles in a white, wideset configuration. Were you able to remove the handles just by pulling?

Hey, that did work for the white ones.

Didn't know Grohe makes a white handle for the 21175 lav faucet.

I think we've seen these on the forum before. I only knew how to remove them from installing them. It's easy to see how they could be confusing. Brizo (Delta) has some in similar design of handle removal.
