Posh kitchen handles and knobs

[JamieFrasersBigSwingingKilt]

I'm kitchen planning. I love Smallbone of Devizes, Tom Howley and Martin Moore kitchens but have nowhere near the necessary budget. I like the knobs/handles these two companies have. Ones similar to the uploaded images especially.

Does anyone know where I can buy some that are similar but for a fraction of the price? I have over 50 knobs to buy so this could get expensive otherwise!

I too wanted them and failed to find them! The people at Oxford Ironmongery might be able to help but they won’t be cheap.

We are currently reviewing all different knobs, handles and cups.

I personally, do not consider ones with visible screws to be overly posh!!! Just sloppy design! They have made no attempt to hide them, so I would expect them to be cheaper if showing visible scews!

here are 1107 to get you started

Howdens have ones with a back plate.

Watching .. I also want these handles (plus a Tom Howley kitchen for a quarter of the budget 🤣)

You can buy backplates to add your choice of knob to. Makes it more expensive than just a knob but probably nowhere near the prices TH etc will be charging (I’m imagining their prices are closer to Armac Martin than B&Q!)

I love this stage of a renovation

Try looking at these websites. They have a great choice and will be able to tell you if you have a local stockist.

Thanks for all the tips. I shall start exploring!

Have a look at this account on Instagram. They bought the handles and back plates seperatly

Love these. Thanks @trickyex !

Love the corston link, thank you!

We used the black handles (bronze underneath)in the Kilburn range they look great but the black coating comes off pretty quickly but only on the most used handles so we will end up with a mixture of bronze coloured handles and black! Not a great look tbh as the plate behind the knob stays black - they do say they will ‘age’ but it just looks v odd! Will be changing them sadly

I went with Jim Lawrence ones, not cheap cheap but nowhere near the ones I was coveting

very good quality

But do you really want backplates? They can get grubby very quickly and need regular polishing, and can look a bit institutional. Back plates are commonly called 'schoolplates', because traditionally you fitted them in schools and public buildings where loads of people used the knobs and would wear of the paint finish otherwise.

We bought ours from aliexpress.

frenchfurniturefittings.co.uk/ I used this company - they may not have the type you're looking for but quite a few with backplates and they are very reasonable.

We bought Devol brass ones for our kitchen. They were the perfect ones. Didn’t have a Devol kitchen budget but their handles, knobs, taps, sink drainers and vents in their aged brass have really enhanced it.

I know this is an old thread so you have likely bought your handles now, but I found these OP if any good:

Look for ‘Croft and Assinder’ and ‘Hafele’.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. Really appreciate the new ideas.

@JamieFrasersBigSwingingKilt did you find some suitable in the end? I’ve just found this thread whilst doing the same search myself!
