Bronze is a material that has been used in many home
applications for thousands of years. So it's not surprising
that bronze has made its way to the kitchen; via bronze
faucets. Like copper faucets, bronze faucets possess the
old world charm that is highly sought after these days.
Bronze is a flexible metal that can be incorporated into
a variety of kitchen designs and styles. Depending on the
faucet style you choose, a bronze faucet can be a perfect
fixture for a rustic kitchen, or perhaps for a Victorian-revival
inspired kitchen. Here are several styles of copper faucets:
Antique Bronze Faucets
The antique bronze faucets possess very rich, dark hues and nicely compliment old world style home, such as Victorian. Oil-rubbed bronze faucets usually come in this style.
Polished Bronze Faucets
As you may expect, polished bronze faucets are lighter in tone and shinier in surface than antique. The effect is completely different. This style can be used in both archaic and contemporary settings.
Hammered Bronze Faucets
In the same visual family of antique bronze faucets you will find the hammered variety. Where the antique style is more refined, hammered bronze faucets are rougher around the edges and project a handmade, imperfect look.
Consider This
Bronze is composed mostly of copper.
If you want bronze faucets and you have a rustic style kitchen, use hammered bronze faucets.
