Metallic finishes
The finishes can be divided into various types. The metal ones remain the most popular, also because they are generally cheaper.
The basic finish, which almost all of us have in our bathroom, is the chrome one. Whether it’s brass or stainless steel, this finish makes our faucet look like a mirror. This option is the cheapest and most popular on the market, due to its ability to match well with any furnishing context.
Next to a chrome finish we have its sister, that of brushed steel. This matte finish is very elegant and fine, suitable for a contemporary and modern environment.
Besides these, we have many other metallic finishes, which are always distinguished in two versions: glossy or matte.
Copper
Bronze
Gold
Nikel
And many others.

Matt finishes
By abandoning metals, we move towards dull colors.
This sector is slowly taking hold in our bathrooms, thanks to the possibility of creating extraordinary effects.
The first matte finish we mention is definitely the black one. As with clothes, black is a color suitable for all environments. It manages to stand out in the environment without characterizing it particularly. A good way to add a touch of a brush to the environment.
Among the black collections on our site we cannot fail to mention the Cox series by Paini.
On the other side of the coin we have the opaque white, candid and delicate finish. Depending on our furniture, this color allows us to hide or enhance the taps, in a play of light and contrasts.

Mixed and alternative finishes
Among these finishes mentioned there are many shades and variations. And the faucet does not necessarily have to consist of only one color.
It is not uncommon to find taps that have a bronze and a white part, or a black body and a polished chrome lever.
Aside from these cute style exercises, you can really indulge yourself with colors and alternatives. Many of these faucet finishes can be found on our website at the best prices on the market.
