Thanks for all the advice & support! Maybe I'm not being so silly after all - I do think the crystal ones look great & would suit the kitchen style. Think I'll order a few to compare. OnePlan - thanks for the suggestion - good to think outside the box but not so sure the leather handles will give the look I'm after.

Hi. They seem to have a different finish? I would just go for cup handles with Victorian knobs personally. These are polished chrome to match the cup handles https://www.amazon.co.uk/Victorian-Cabinet-Cupboard-Polished-Chrome/dp/B0088V8HVC/ref=sr_1_1?s=diy&ie=UTF8&qid=1487665032&sr=1-1&keywords=victorian+cabinet+cupboard+door+knob+polished+chrome

Hi Ellie, yes, that’s where I’d put them. Would probably put cups on the drawers too. That’s what I did in this shaker kitchen.

Decisions, decisions! In such a layout, we would often have gone with a tall unit with internal drawers instead of a "pullout", so would have had a hinged door, which makes it simpler! Three choices: 1) Go for a "pair" of knobsleft & right, so opening the cupboard is done with two hands (not so ideal) 2) Go with a singe, centrally placed knob BUT you need to ensure that the position of ALL knobs in the row are positined in the same horizontal axis! Often with knobs the position is in line with the seam of the centre panel, so you can't then place a central knob without it looking odd. Take care to keep consistency throughout your kitchen! 3) For just those two doors, go with a cup or "D" handle centrally positioned. This will still look good and remains single handed opening. Look forward to seeing what you eventually do!
