Marquis is a refined door style from Kitchen Craft with detailed inside edge profile beyond standard Shaker designs. The Marquis aesthetic provides classical character with refined molding detail suited to formal traditional kitchens that want substantial architectural quality.
The Marquis Profile
The Marquis door features more refined inside edge detail than basic Shaker construction, with classical molding profile that suggests aged formal millwork or refined French-traditional cabinetry. The standard rail-and-stile proportions read traditional, and the refined molding detail catches light differently than flat-edge Shaker doors, producing visual depth that suits formal applications.

Best Application
Formal traditional kitchens, classical-leaning remodels with substantial architectural detail throughout, French-country and refined European-style spaces, and homes with substantial millwork that pairs naturally with refined cabinet molding. Marquis suits primary residences where the cabinet detail is meant to read as designed formal quality.
Hardware Direction
The refined molding detail pairs especially well with classical hardware: cup pulls, refined detailed knobs, and traditional bin pulls all suit the formal architectural character. Aged brass and unlacquered brass register beautifully against the classical profile detail. Skip oversized contemporary bar pulls, which fight the traditional character.
Color Selection
Marquis is available in the brand's full paint and stain palette. Warm creams and refined off-whites suit the classical character; saturated dark colors create dramatic formal statement; stained wood options provide refined traditional warmth.
