I feel your pain! I had Griggs on my (very long) list of potential pulls but chose something else due to lack of enough sizes. The Riverside is slightly curved on the bottom, with no protruding ends and comes in a few sizes. The Extensity is nice, the ends look like they're tucked under enough to prevent snags, but the biggest size is 6.25". Emtek Westridge is curved and comes in many sizes, but may be too traditional compared to Griggs. I also looked at Whittier, Orbit, and many others, but I'm trying to show you the ones with curves and little to no ends sticking out.

FWIW I ended up going with Emtek Select for cabinets and appliances; the ends are very short and the pulls have a bigger diameter then others I looked at and they come in many sizes.

Whatever you decide, be sure to order samples so you can feel and see the finish in person. I ordered and returned several pulls, and visited several showrooms.

Thank you, Chicagoans, for all of the great suggestions! I will check them all out; agree that Extensity was close, but the lack of higher sizes was a barrier. Also good to know what you ended up going with when all was said and done.

And yep, more samples to order - my dining room table looks like it's an unkempt showroom storage unit at this point, but it's worth it to take the time to make the right selection.

I feel your pain. Those are the exact pulls I wanted to use and had the same issue. I ended up going with Top Knobs Riverside - I still don't like it as well as Griggs but it is better than putting two pulls on some of the drawers. Let me know what you decide.

Go directly to the Top Knobs site versus googling pulls

Your pull doesn't extend beyond the counter, many closed end D shape pulls will be better suited to your cabinet style as sell

Just to give you some sizing perspective. This bank of drawers is 36” and the pulls are 8.5”. They work well.

If you love a particular handle and everyone’s hands fit in them, you can go down a couple of inches. It may open up more options for you.

Hardware is a difficult part of kitchen design, for sure! Keep getting samples. That’s the only way to find the exact right one.

I found these on Knobs4Less.com.

Thanks to Jan and RedRyder for the suggestions! The Lydia is a potential option to consider, will tuck that one away in the maybe file. DH is looking for something a bit 'organic' - I translate that to mean something with a curve/arch/3d effect incorporated in it. the angles of the Lydia may resonate there.

And while I read about those, two more samples arrived for the dining room storage unit :) Found these on the Hickory hardware site: 'Twist' and 'Crest'. Would welcome ideas from folks on each.

Photos of each against the current frontrunners for countertop, backsplash and flooring are below. (The backsplash may very well change by the time make final selections; the countertop is our anchor at this point).

The Crest one has more squarish edges, reminds me of drawer front. the name of the finish is the 'flat ultra brass'. Not sure if that may end up being too 'yellow' against the countertop, which feels cooler to me.

The second one is the Twist. The name of this color is 'elusive golden nickel', there's a bit of pale gold in here - just enough so you know it's not just nickel - seems to bridge a gap between gold and stainless steel. the twists in the design catch light in some interesting ways.

So with the cabinet doors and drawer shape we have, I'd love to get thoughts on folks' preferences on this one - stay with a shape that closely mirrors the lines of the door and drawer, or add a curve?

TIA for feedback.

Edit: Consciously trying to sidestep putting in brushed nickel/silver, to keep the look from being too cold.

We should pool our leftover samples and send to someone who likes variety! I don’t remember what I did with the ones that “failed” the tests. Probably in a box in the attic!

So happy you found what you wanted. When it’s all done, please post photos!

Best wishes for a smooth install and please post final photos!
