Stainless Faucet with Copper Sink?

4 years ago

last modified: 4 years ago

We are installing a copper sink (Sinkology-Ernst) in our remodel and are trying to decide on a faucet. Our cabinets will be Kraftmaid Thornton Rustic Maple in Husk and will have orb pulls. We originally planned to do an orb faucet, but we will have Dekton countertops in Keranium and are thinking the orb faucet might be too dark. All of our appliances will be stainless steel as well. Any thoughts on Stainless or brushed nickel faucets with the copper sink? It’s hard to find pictures online, so I’m guessing it’s not too popular. Thought a stainless or nickel faucet might tie into the appliances. TIA! (P.S. this is not our kitchen in the photos...just an example of the Dekton)

I agree. Not to many other finishes work with Oil Rubber Bronze.

No to stainless faucet. I am the queen of mixing metals, but I would not do stainless with a copper sink. Would do ORB.

Another No. I love Chrome and polished nickel its my favorite but I would never pair it with copper. I would do matte black or Oil Rubbed Bronze.

The only shiny chrome faucet I could find was on the Havens copper sink site where the sink had a restaurant type faucet. I thought it worked because the coiled styling worked to mitigate the shine.

I also found a brushed nickel pairing that I thought worked, in this case because of the shared matte. But then I think you would want to change your hardware to brushed nickel.

You can absolutely use stainless or nickel . I assume this project has been completed as your original comment was posted 9 months ago. I would love to see what you chose and finished project pictures. I'm sure it turned out great. I hope you are staying safe and healthy. Regards, Carina.
