It's all in the details...kitchen hardware

As you might have guessed by now, I am in the initial stages of designing a home for myself! Hopefully I will have a plan and some more details to share with you but for now I'm happy filling my brain (and Pinterest board) with ideas.

Although I want gloss white kitchen cupboards (like my kitchen post back here) I do want to do some kind of interesting and unique handle. After all, good design is in the details!

The chunky brass handles on the pantry are amazing and the campaign hardware is gorgeous too.

A deep bronze finger pull is contemporary, yet still different. I can't find bronze hardware anywhere in Australia. I'm beginning to wonder whether spraypaint would hold up if done correctly? Any ideas?

I posted this last time but I really adore the recessed finger pulls as handles. They have an industrial edge that I like.

Restoration Hardware sells some similar to these with chrome supports and glass or lucite handles. So gorgeous but probably out of budget!

These pretty brushed brass finger pulls are lovely and simple...

What's your thoughts? Any suggestions on where to get reasonably priced, but gorgeous kitchen hardware?

  1. I love the second and third kitchens, with the black handles. That industrial feel is really nice :) I'm not a huge fan of the high-gloss cabinets, but I think you could probably make them look good

  2. I love the brass handles.

    Do you know if restoration hardware can send to Australia?

  4. Brass is my current obsession so I love the idea of having a long chunky brass handle… especially for kitchen cabinets! A friend of mine once told me that they were able to get Amazon.com to send stuff to Australia so they might be worth a try? You can find nearly next to anything from them!

  5. Hi Anna, I recently saw some brass handles at Master Home Imporovements but they were only small handles so don't know if that would be much help to you.

  6. Oh I have been on the hunt too. Finding details like handles that are reasonable and not bog standard in Australia is so hard. Keeler Hardware in Sydney are reasonablish is price. They carry similar stock to Mother of Pearl and Sons but usually a bit cheaper, especially if you ask for a trade discount.
    Good luck!!
