Curved ORB Shower Rod?

16 years ago

Can anyone suggest a curved ORB shower rod? I have a small 5 x 9 bathroom, which will have the Ashfield ORB fixtures for the vanity, shower, and towel rack.

I am looking for a curved ORB shower rod to go with that setup. Any suggestions?

I'm going to be doing the Pottery Barn ORB sconces, one on each side of the mirror.

I have the Kohler Mendota cast iron tub and will have a plaid black and white tile floor. Thanks for the ideas!

    I don't know if The Crescent Rodî comes in ORB but you can do a Google search. We got ours in brushed SS/SN at BB&B but I think they discontinued carrying them. They were on clearance a few months after I purchased ours. I still had my receipt (we got two and one hadn't been installed yet) and I got the price adjustment. I think the one they carry now is from Moen. I saw them (in the packaging)hanging on the wall while at BB&B recently. I think it said "adjustable" on the pkg. If that means it is split with one half sliding inside the other, you might not want that kind. I would think the curtain hooks would catch on the lip between the two halves.

    Thanks cat_mom! I do see that BB&B are carrying the Moen ORB one. At least I know I can find something there and I'll check on the other brand.

    I bought mine three years ago online from Signature Hardware. www.signaturehardware.com
    I got a Crescent shower curtain rod (item 202779) and the roller ball curtain rings (160630) to match in oil rubbed bronze. I have been pleased with them.
    I don't know how the price and color compares to the Moen one. Mine looks fine with my Hansgrohe fixtures.

    Thank you astridh! I'm getting down to those last details and this really helps having a testimonial of a happy Signature Hardware customer. I just bought the Sussex Pottery Barn sconces and I'm trying to figure out the paint color to use for the bathroom. I'm getting there and I appreciate the help and feedback ;-).

    thankyou for asking about this! I was wondering the same thing for our boys bathroom.

    Ok, I feel silly asking this, but what does ORB mean?

    I just bought a curved shower rod at Lowes. The one I bought was in chrome.

    Would this work?

    P.S. Love your choices, by the way. I had been planning to do a black and white checkered floor in our guest bath... but the black tile that I order (Daltile Navelli - which has been discontinued), came in smaller than we thought (11" x 11", instead of 12" x 12"... so, we ended up using all Navelli Carrera Star on the floor.

    Thank you lovely ladies ;-). remodel-mama, I think the one you pointed to at the Lowe's site might work. It appears that BB&B carries the Moen as well. I'll check them out in person now that I know where to look. My preference is to have one that is mounted to the wall as opposed to the spring loaded tension rod type.

    Thanks for the encouragement everyone. DH and I picked out BM silver fox for the paint color to try on the wall. He will paint and then the tile man comes in two weeks. We'll see how it goes...

    skatermom--your're welcome!

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the rest of the process goes well...
