There are plenty of benefits to matte black bathroom faucets and bathroom sets. Not only is it a unique bath faucet finish, it's versatile and pairs beautifully with a wide variety of colors and other finishes. Meaning you don’t have to sweat it if you want to mix it in with warm or cool metals that already exist in your bathroom. Like brushed nickel, there is a timelessness to matte black. There’s something so striking about using it to provide contrast to a neutral or white bathroom vanity.

From a practical angle, the color helps hide dirt, smudges and fingerprints better than other metals too. Curvy, ornate shaped accessories offer up a more traditional feel, while clean-lined sets can create a modern look. Even these small details make a difference in a room as tiny as a bathroom, so make them work harder for you.

If you’re looking for a faucet finish with staying power, brushed nickel is the stainless steel of the bathroom. It’s a design go-to that doesn’t feel dated and deftly toes the line between cool and warm metal thanks to its slightly gold undertones.

The low-gloss faucet finish lends an understated look that doesn’t steal the attention away from a statement vanity or mirror. Select styles feature SpotShield technology, these brushed nickel bathroom faucets and hardware sets are more resistant to water spots and fingerprints, so your surfaces stay cleaner, longer. Thanks to its clean lines and subtle shapes it stays in style for years to come.

You can’t tuck chrome off in a corner, because it’s meant to shine. Truly a statement hardware, chrome bathroom faucets and hardware sets add brightness and work well with both modern and vintage colors and styles. Chrome is still going strong, and you’ll see plenty of geometric shapes and cool, modern styles in hardware and accessories.

The non-corrosive faucet finish makes it ideal for a moisture-rich area like the bathroom. Just keep in mind that because it has a highly reflective finish, it does tend to show spots and smudges a little easier than its counterparts.

When you use gold bathroom faucets and hardware sets in a room, it becomes the jewelry of the space. It’s a faucet finish that’s been trending up for a while now and signs are showing that it’s not waning in popularity. Unlike the 80s version of this warm metal trend, today’s gold and brass aren’t as bright and shiny. Instead, they feature a brushed finish that feels more organic and muted.

It adds warmth to a room, and looks especially beautiful against deep colors like blues, greens and black. Don’t be afraid to mix and match this faucet finish with others. A gold bathroom set can work with other finishes like brushed nickel or matte black.

Oil rubbed bronze faucets and hardware sets offer an old-world sophistication to any bathroom. While it might be slightly more expensive than some of the other finishes for bathroom faucets, it’s incredibly durable and will last for years to come. Its finish is long-lasting because it’s able to stand up to tarnish, corrosion and discoloration.

The hand-relieved bronze highlights help these bathroom faucet sets blend in with both warm and cool metal tones. So it works well in a bathroom that has a vanity with a black faucet or mirror, just as easily as it could with a gold showerhead. If your decor feels inspired by Tuscan-style living, then this might be the right finish for you.
