The Comet is a cabinet handle from Blum that brings together rounded edges with clean, straight lines. At 50mm long with a 32mm hole centre spacing, it sits comfortably in your hand while maintaining a distinctly modern appearance.

Where It Fits

This handle works well across drawer fronts and cabinet doors in contemporary kitchens. The 32mm centre spacing makes it suitable for most standard cabinet hardware configurations. Its compact 50mm length means it won't overwhelm smaller drawer faces, while the matt black finish anchors it in kitchens with darker accents or mixed metal schemes.

How It Works

You grip the handle from underneath, with the rounded profile sitting naturally against your fingers. The aluminium construction keeps it light, so drawers open smoothly without the handle adding unnecessary weight to the mechanism.

Design Consideration

The matt black finish shows fingerprints and water marks more readily than brushed or textured finishes, so you'll want to consider how often these areas get handled in your kitchen routine. The rounded design softens what could otherwise be a stark modern look, making it work in kitchens that blend contemporary and warmer elements.

Build Quality

Made from aluminium with screw fixing directly through the cabinet face. The matt coating provides the colour and texture, though like most matt finishes, it requires more frequent cleaning to maintain its appearance. Blum includes the fixing screws.

Closing Guidance

Consider how the matt black will work with your other finishes and whether you're comfortable with the maintenance it requires. The size works well for most applications, but check that the 50mm length feels right for your larger drawers and tall cabinet doors.
