Kitchen Hardware Help!

5 years ago
last modified: 5 years ago

I cannot decide which kitchen hardware to pick. The backsplash (to be installed soon) is Cle Tiles Zellige 2X6 in Sea Salt (basically pure white). There will be 3 open shelves on the right side of the kitchen to match the hood wood color. I am trying to achieve a farmhouse rustic and cozy/welcoming look. I am not into modern or transitional style. I could reeeallly use some help. I am trying to choose between Top knobs flat black and Top knobs honey bronze color. What do you all think?

    sorry, but the photos aren't going to fly. (besides not even being able to tell what youre using, some of the photos look the same. I feel like it's a test!)


    post the actual photos of the hardware, and a photo with them on your countertop next to your cabinets and number them in the photo. Do 3 in each photo.

    becki owens did an almost identical kitchen and used these














    These all come in gold too

    I wouldn’t consider your kitchen rustic farmhouse and would stay away from anything too rustic/heavy. In regards to hardware, you can’t go wrong with the warmth of brass and consider mixing the shapes.


    How you accessorize will play a really big role in creating a warm, inviting space.

    Look for the Trevi series if pulls and knobs. I think the Tuscan Bronze would look amazing in your kitchen!

    The style of your hardware will make a statement. Keep it simple. Your kitchen is already classic. Make sure the pulls have sufficient projection so anyone with large hands can use them.
    Do you like a sharp edge, or a soft one? Pulls or knobs on the uppers? High contrast or a soft brass?
    All these decisions make a difference. The best thing to do is BUY SAMPLES.
    Here is my shaker kitchen. Knobs on uppers, plain pulls below.

    May I suggest doing a process of elimination, holding up two handles, A & B. Which do you like better? Discard the less preferred, then hold up the preferred (either A or B) against handle C. Keep the preferred, and discard the less preferred. Go through your whole pile. It will help you to reach a decision, or at least narrow down to your top three.

    #6 and #9 look the same for me.

    Please post a regular picture of the space currently. I think I’d go for satin nickel. Simple hardware cup pulls on the drawers. And knobs on doors. Maybe a few of those latch style knobs on the cabinets flanking the hood. Will look for inspiration

    Thank you all for the feedback. I updated the post to reflect ny final 2 choices between Top knobs flat black and Top knobs honey bronze color. what do you think?

  • 5 years ago

    I like bronze over black

  • 5 years ago

    was the vent hood custom?

  • 5 years ago

    With those bar stools, I’d vote for black. They give a great industrial, modern vibe.

  • 5 years ago

    Yes, the vent hood is custom built.

    I love the bronze, I think it will look better Beautiful kitchen!

    I have the same faucet! Isn't it amazing? I'd do black. Is it too late to suggest a slightly shorter pull? May I suggest this pendant? They also carry some other very unique pieces. https://www.tudoandco.com/collections/pendant-light/products/reims-smooth-garden-concrete-pendant-ceiling-light

    Honey bronze all the way! I love your countertops by the way, what are they?

  • 5 years ago

    @Keshet Starr The countertops are Namib fantasy marble/quarzite

    I decided to go with polished nickel hardware in the end. Here are my final choices. Which handle-bin pull combo do you think is best with my cabinets? Can’t wait to make a decision and update all hardware!
    Left: rejuvenation Vernon bin pull
    Center: rejuvenation hexagonal bin pull
    Right: top knobs Channing cup pull
    Left handle: top knobs ascendra
    Right handle: Vernon handle (please note this is an offset handle sample, I would order the regular straight version of it).

    I like these

    I like this for everything. no knobs at all (I think your doors are too tall for knobs. the knobs disappear. use the handles. ) I also like the bin pulls (far left) for the second choice.

    How is your Namib Fantasy "Hybrid" holding up? Is it honed or polished?

  • 4 years ago

    It’s holding up beautifully. Grains are really tight and even the coffee area, which is not seal yet, never got stained.

    Is it honed or polished?

    It's beautiful.

  • 4 years ago

    Thank you! It’s polished.
