Cabinets occupy a lot of space in any kitchen. According to some they account for almost 30% to 40% of the cost of a kitchen. Such a predominant entity is bound to have a major role to play in giving the kitchen its theme which here is the Tuscan theme. Cabinets in a Tuscan kitchen need a different treatment. The paint and the wood used to make the cabinets should make the kitchen look old and also give it a country appearance. The color must contrast with wall colors and must be inspired by the Tuscan landscape. Bright forest green and deep reds are colors found all over Tuscany. The same colors would be ideal for the cabinets.
Tuscan cabinets are also known for their large, decorative and gleaming hardware on their cabinets. You will get the pulls, handles and knobs from any hardware shop. You are quite likely to get them from any home improvement store. Today you will find these hardware in very attractive ceramics or in as heavily burnished metal.
