Glass cabinet pulls for colour without paint
Glass cabinet pulls put colour and light where hardware is usually just metal. The colour is in the material rather than on it, so it will not wear off the grip area the way a coated finish can, and the piece changes as the light in the room moves. Almost everything here is made by hand by Aquila Art Glass or cast by Sietto, so these are small-run pieces rather than mass production.
Colours and shapes
The colour range on this page runs through red, green, blue, orange, yellow, black, pink and purple, in solid, swirled and clear-backed treatments. The shapes split between dedicated glass pulls, bar pulls with glass elements and a handful of standard pull profiles. Styles sit in the Arts and Crafts language that hand-made glass belongs to.
Drill centers and fitting
The great majority of these are 3 inch center to center, which is the most common cabinet pull spacing in American kitchens and makes them a direct swap for an existing pull. A few run at 3-1/2, 5-1/16 and a 5-5/8 by 8 inch appliance spacing, and some are adjustable, which helps when the existing holes fall between standard sizes. Measure center to center between your existing holes before ordering.
Living with hand-made glass
Glass pulls also want a little planning on backing: a lighter drawer front carries them comfortably, while a very heavy pantry drawer is better served by a metal pull. Expect small differences between pieces in a set - swirl, depth and colour saturation vary by hand. Glass will not fade, but it can chip under a hard knock, so islands, uppers and furniture are easier homes for it than the hardest-working base drawer. Aquila art glass on statement islands shows the material in place, and hardware for glass cabinet doors covers the adjacent case.

Frequently Asked Questions
What drill centers do glass pulls come in?
Most are 3 inch center to center, the standard American cabinet spacing, with some at 3-1/2 and 5-1/16 inches, an adjustable option, and a 5-5/8 by 8 inch appliance spacing. Measure between your existing holes first.
Will the colour vary between pulls?
Slightly, yes. These are hand-made and small-run, so swirl and saturation differ a little from piece to piece. Order the whole set at once so they come from the same production run.
How do samples work?
Buy one pull as a sample and the cost is refunded with your full order. Glass colour shifts with the light behind it, so seeing one on your own cabinet is worth the step.
