14 Beautiful Faucet Finishes to Consider For Your Space

When you’re thinking of a faucet, the first thing that comes to mind is probably a shiny silver or chrome finish. These finishes are very popular — along with more recently popular ones like matte black and antique brass — but the world of faucet finishes is opening up to include a wide range of colors, textures and sheens.

Having so many options means that choosing the perfect finish takes careful consideration. A faucet’s finish has the power to elevate a design, make the faucet a standout feature, or guide the design’s aesthetic.
