The Old House Design Dilemma Bathrooms

Different finishes in the bathroom

4 years ago

Hi all, we have a historic home in the Appalachian Mountains. We bought antique copper faucets for the master bathroom sinks and clawfoot tub. The issue is I am having difficulty finding antique cooper shower fixtures for under 1k. Hubby thinks a black would work in the shower, but I am worried that will not look right. Thoughts? Thank you! I have attached a photo of the faucets so you can see the finish.

here's some pictures of mixing and matching . Scroll down to see copper with other choices. Up to 3 finishes is acceptable. Also if you repeat the color in other places and ways it makes it more intentional.
