Stainless/Satin Nickel pulls on Honey Oak?
Comments (21)Okay, I'm back! I ordered a sample order from an online site, which let me pick 3. I picked 3 different finishes, and 3 different styles to get several ideas. I am not a photoshop guru, so only put them on and took pictures... First, what I have in its decaying state: From kitchen cabinet hardware Next, I originally thought I'd do stainless/satin. And, here is a "knob" that I like in stainless. What do you think? From kitchen cabinet hardware From kitchen cabinet hardware Here is a pull that I like in "black iron". I like the color, but would probably also like it in stainless. It is a companion pull to the knob above so I can get either in either color. From kitchen cabinet hardware From kitchen cabinet hardware Here is one DH liked--it is heavier. This is black nickel (I think). I am not sure I am digging the shiny... It would also come in satin nickel. From kitchen cabinet hardware What do you think? Am I any closer? I think I like the stainless knobs, but not sure how it would look on my cabinets (in pulls) without replacing all my hinges... They are weathered also, so appear very dark. But, maybe the hinges wouldn't be that noticable? If I did the stainless pulls, it would probably be the first pull above (in "black iron") Also, we tried some ORB, and I liked them, but DH wasn't thrilled with them...some of them had some "pink" on them....See MoreHelping finding 8' traditional-style bar pulls in black

Comments (12)Rubber oil bronze is a bit more traditional (with hints of real metal coming through) while flat black is more contemporary. Either could look striking given the description of dark oak and black countrrtops it really becomes a preference. The key decision in my mind would be, what are the switches and light fixtures (in that particular room specifically) ? if your house has an open floorplan its also OK to do "zone" design meaning whats in the kitchen can have a contrasted finish from the livingroom. a side note if going with lots of dark both in fixtures and cabinets (and/or appliances and sink) be sure to bring in light for contrast, either with lots of daylight (windows), flooring, upholstery or in the adjacent space so the eye can flow or pop. Having multiple shades and texture of the same family can be beautiful but too mucb of a good thing can make it overwhelming. best of luck....See MoreKitchen Design Help - Backsplash and Cabinet Pulls
