Ok, so I received the other handle I was looking at from Sydney. The smaller one , does come in a larger size if required, it is however satin chrome and would match the octagonal knobs. The new one is brushed Nickel , the same as my pendant lights. I had not even noticed this until the new handle arrived as I did not hold them up against the lights. If I chose the nickel ones I would need to also choose a new knob for the cabinets. Thoughts appreciated :)

Have you considered dual metal/ceramic handles such as these ? http://guide.alibaba.com/sport/images/shop/79/09/24/0/3-78-inches-ceramic-kitchen-cabinet-handles-pulls-knobs-dresser-pull-drawer-pulls-furniture-handle-knob-hardware-white_632390.jpg The metal can be a variety of types/colours/finishes also as Slavka says Iron (dull would be a great choice coupled with a plain white to pick up the counter top and offset the monotony of the drawer/cupboard fronts.

Hi. Are you able to post image of the cup pull you refer to and what material it's made from, please? I've seen fairly large doors for integrated appliances with simple knobs used, or are you looking for something different? Here's a link I found: https://www.bauers.com.au/category/handles-0 Is this too traditional?

Hi, Kethy have something similar to the handles that they used. Only in black and brass though I believe https://www.kethy.com.au/product/l4370-brass Riley
