Ruvati matte gold brass tone sink - matching faucet?

9 days ago

I love the Ruvati matte gold brass tone kitchen sink and am looking for a matching faucet? Anyone have this sink with matching faucet and can share a photo and what faucet they went with? Delta has limited gold options and I don’t think their champagne bronze is a good match. I’m looking at Kohler’s faucets in vibrant brushed modern brass finish. Here’s a pic of the sink and a pic of the Kohler Crue faucet. Thank you!

So I have not seen the matte gold/brass in person, however I have a friend who put in the Ruvati black stainless sink. It has been installed a year now and the finish has not held up at all on the bottom of the sink. The black finish has worn off and now the bottom is speckled with stainless streaks and marks, it looks really bad.

If the gold tone finish is anything like the black finish, it is a thin layer that over time gets nicked and scratched, so the underlying stainless color shows through. I would stear clear of any sink that had this thin finish layer on it.

If you really want this color, then I think you need to spring for a brass sink, but understand that the brass will also patina over time as well.

Zero chance that looks like that after 6 months. It's also pretty darn nouveau riche gaudy. Especially if you try to match a faucet with it.

Nothing described as "work station" should be in gold.

Do not do that sink. Please do not.

Yes, it will be overkill "gold/brass" and no you will not match a faucet to it, and no you don't need to "match" a faucet ......because you should avoid the sink, 100%. Apologies in advance.

- INNOVATIVE NANO-PVD TECHNIQUE: The beautiful colored finish is applied as an outer layer that makes it incredibly tough and resistant to wearing or peeling.
DO YOU WANT A FINISH IS IS APPLIED AND NOT INTEGRAL IN THE SINK????

Just a note to anyone reading this. The Kohler Crue faucet in brushed gold is a very good shape and I love the lever is high off the counter BUT it does not have a magnetic catch for the pull-down spray.

Wish I had read the details more carefully.
