Furniture Hardware Replacement
Hey everyone, new member here. I'd like to change the hardware on some furniture but have a couple questions. Since the drawer is curved, I should be ok with installing handles that don't have a back plate that needs to sit flush against the drawer right?
Second, I'd like to replace the accent pieces that are in between the handles, but i don't want to plug them and refinish the wood. Does anyone know of any accent plates that could fit into the mounting holes or anything along those lines? Adding a third, smaller handle would look a bit strange to me. Pictures are attached. I appreciate any advice!

Welcome to the forums!
While a new pull with a single mounting point should do ok, one that has 2 mounting points is still designed to mount to a flat surface. I'd buy just one and see if it would work satisfactorily. I suspect any plate that would curve with the wood would need to be custom bent/shaped. Once you remove the old pulls/plates you might find that the finish looks [aged] different behind the plate.
