the cabinets look veneered or laminated to me. Do you mean the handles are sawn?

what do you mean by handles instead of holes?

Looks nice.

Are they splintery?

I think they'd in reality be a nightmare to clean as the open rough texture would just collect crap and grease would soak in over time.
I love natural grain and different materials & textures used throughout but I think this wouldn't last well in this situation and you'd end up replacing very quickly.
It's one of those style over substance trends that look better in the magazine than in real life use.

Craycray means crazy? What a hideous expression.
Unlike those kitchen doors which are lovely

Couple of coats of paint and they're wipeable, there's no cracks
