Polished chrome or chrome handles

5 years ago

In a bit of a dilemma on whether to go for polished chrome or chrome kitchen kindles. The kitchen is a contemporary shaker kitchen (not installed yet), with units on one side painted in F and B blackened and island in Hague blue. Ovens are Neff with polished chrome handles. Quooker ordered in chrome. Hubbie likes the chrome as they’re shiny and bright but I’m wondering should we be matching with oven handles or does it really matter? If we go polished chrome to match the oven, do I need to change the quooker to polished chrome too? Would value any opinions.

Is it too late to change your order to a white shaker kitchen instead ? Add a simple white/ grey marble top then paint your walls with colour - and you can easily change the wall colour if you feel like a change next year !

Chrome is a great choice for a modern look. I'm in America, so I converted 30cm to inches so I could find you some possible ideas. Please note that our website does not ship outside the US, but hopefully these can at least give you some nice ideas. 1. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/george-kovacs-bling-bling-pendant 2. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/kichler-stella-1-light-35-mini-pendant-in-chrome-42216ch 3. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/golden-lighting-harland-1-light-mini-pendant-in-chrome-wclear-glass-3086-m1l-ch 4. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/kichler-reynes-1-light-mini-pendant-in-chrome-42123ch 5. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/et2-frost-halogen-mini-pendant-in-polished-chrome-wclear-white-glass-e22000-10 6. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/et2-teardrop-1-light-mini-pendant-in-polished-chrome-e24055-pc 7. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/fredrick-ramond-globe-2-light-mini-pendant-in-polished-chrome-finish-fr38510pcm 8. http://www.lightsonline.com/product/elk-lighting-modern-organics-pendant8

Hello Roundwood Design, Very nice!!..... there are just a few things I'd do differently.. Have a free standing range oven.. If we could... Wolf... Smeg double 9 burner duel fuel in chrome... Simply because I like gas for the hob and electric oven.. I really like very robust, industrial appliances.. Dualit toaster and Architect kettle, Kitchenaid in chrome.. No need to put these in corners! I'd choose a different sink... I do like ceramic butler style, concrete or a marble or other stone.. Slightly different tap.. Handles... I personally don't really like them...unless they are really really plain lengths of brass or those lovely brass cup handles.. Then I would paint the bottom cabinets a nice charcoal or a navy.. Or the walls a dark colour..If there was more height to contrast the light cupboards at head height.. I'd have a big larder cupboard or two if the space allowed... instead of corner units.. For food and for the table linen and crockery etc.. You could have boxed in the extractor and painted it the same colour as the cupboards- as there is a lack of chrome here.. that could have worked with the overall aesthetic of the room... The little 3 spot light.. Don't think that is sophisticated enough.. Have a look at Old School Electric.. Do love the shape of the doors and design and also the subway tiles choice and the use of matt paint! The floor is very nice too and the kitchen is well made.. : ))

Fabulous wall-mounted mirror made of polish chrome. Mirror image is magnified 5 times. The integrated, surrpounding lighting provided by the 2GX13 bulbs also ensures optimum visibility. The articulated double arm at the back of the mirror is also ingenious: You can align it optimally when it is needed and then push it back, close to the wall to save space.
