cabinet hardware color

13 years ago

We are redoing our master bath and all the fixtures are oil rubbed bronze - lights, faucets, outlet plates, etc. Our new vanities are dark brown. Is it acceptable to do ORB cabinet pulls/knobs on a dark vanity? They won't stand out, but I'm afraid to mix & match my metal colors. Feedback welcome!

Sure! They are going to stand out, simply because the hardware is 3D and not flat to the cabinet surface. ORB is also a living finish...the knobs/pulls will develop wear spots showing the red bronze under the dark oil with use. so over time, the hardware will show up more.

Ironwood, very interesting about the "living finish" :)
