Furniture handles used to be seen only as a functional piece of equipment, but now they are one of the most important decorative elements. They are the ones that can give furniture character, emphasize its style and introduce a unique accent to the interior. Should they be discreet, or perhaps form a distinctive element of the arrangement? How to choose the perfect handles to combine aesthetics with comfort of use?
To begin with, it is worth noting that the range of furniture handles available on the market is extremely diverse. Among the proposed models are minimalist, simple, geometric designs, as well as decorative, stylized, expressive designs. Some draw attention to themselves with an innovative form, others with a timeless, classic shape. It is worth noting that handles differ not only in appearance, but also in the way they are installed. We can distinguish between screwed, knob, edge and recessed models.
In the offer of the REJS brand we can find handles from all the above-mentioned groups, but which ones to decide on when designing furniture?

Screw-in handles
This is the most classic solution, attached to furniture fronts with screws. They can take the form of elongated handles, delicate slats or more massive models designed for high fronts - such as LINO. With a wide range of designs, they fit both modern and classic interiors. In the former, it is worth betting on models with geometric, angular shapes such as: EASY, STILO or AR32. In traditional arrangements, handles with a flowing, slightly decorative line, such as MAGNA, LINEA or the finesse ARTESI, whose counterpart can also be found among knobs, will work well.

Knobs
Another option are small, but impressive, point-mounted furniture knobs. They are used in classic and vintage furniture, but also - due to their oval shapes - in children's room arrangements. We can choose from more decorative models, such as the aforementioned ARTESI, classic ones such as LIRA or NIRO, and modern ones such as AR09.

Edge handles
If we are planning minimalist, modern, form-saving furniture, it is worth betting on edge handles. Thanks to the fact that they are mounted on the edge of the front - they are almost invisible, do not come to the foreground of the design, but complement it discreetly. They take the form of slats, the shapes of which differ in edge finish, depth and length. Particularly noteworthy is a novelty from REJS - the LENTIS furniture handle, which has slightly curved edges, comes in lengths from 52 to 1200 mm and in four color versions: chrome, aluminum, black matte and brushed gold.

Recessed handles
Recessed handles are a solution that combines minimalist design with high functionality. They take a simple, modern form and are mounted along the entire length of the front, which provides convenience of use and does not interfere with the line of the cabinet. Thanks to the fact that they are flush with the surface - they do not stick out, they are extremely easy to keep clean. Depending on the cross-section of the profile from which they are made, the handles can be L-shaped - model FE2, or C-shaped - model FE3, which affects the grip and ergonomics of use. They are particularly popular in modern interiors, where harmony and simplicity of form are important.

Choosing the right furniture handles is crucial to both the aesthetics and functionality of the furniture. The models offered by REJS are available in many sizes and colors, so everyone will find the right one for themselves.
Screw handles are a classic solution, combining convenience with aesthetics, furniture knobs add charm and subtle elegance. Edge handles are almost invisible, making them an excellent choice for modern arrangements, as are recessed handles which are easy to keep clean and do not interfere with the line of the furniture.
Each of the above-mentioned types of handles can give furniture a unique character, so it is worth considering which of them will best fit into the style of the interior.
