Home Decor. Holiday Decor. Christmas Trees. Holiday Lighting. Gift Cards. Design Dilemma. I am planning a bathroom remodel and I am concerned about mixing the finishes on the hardware. I want an antique look with a clawfoot tub. I like the look of the chrome tub fillers. However the vanities will be furniture like with a dark walnut stain not exactly rustic but definitely antiqued with oil rubbed bronze hardware. The coutertops will be a creamy marble. The floors will be brick.

I am just concerned about chrome faucets for the sinks. Related Discussions Is it OK to mix different metal finishes on bathroom hardware? I have ORB handles on all the doors in my home.

Love this and great subject as mixed metals are all the rage: We have oil rubbed bronze for all door hardware in the house and stainless steel appliances — would you incorporate brass or would it be too much? I also love black and have iron tables etc. I love how the bathroom turned out! Thank you so much! Brass might be tricky to mix with oil rubbed bronze since they are both warmer metals.
Some finishes work together but it depends on the hue of your pieces! I like the brush nickel with the antique brass. Can you tell me what color paint your walls are? I love your niche tile choice. My paint color is Shiplap by Magnolia. The floor in this same tile as the niche would be beautiful! Your bathroom looks beautiful — so calm and stylish! Can you tell me what color the cabinets are? It looks so soothing!
I really like your design style! How do you think chrome sink faucets and chrome shower head will look with brushed gold vanity pulls and light? Do you think brushed nickel would work better? And, while you should feel free to mix metal finishes in your bathroom, I do recommend selecting no more than three metal finishes for one room.
Metals come in warm and cool tones. Warm metals include brass, gold, copper, and oil-rubbed bronze. C ool metals include chrome, polished nickel, and brushed nickel.
Black is considered either a cool-toned metal or a neutral and makes a great third metal to balance out your mix. If you want to mix metals in the bathroom, I recommend mixing cool metals with warm metals to create a nice, eye-pleasing balance. Metals also come in a variety of sheens and finishes, including matte, satin, brushed, polished, oil-rubbed, aged, and antiqued. When mixing metals, some designers recommend matching the sheen on your fixtures; i.
However, in my opinion, you can safely mix shiny with matte—as well as warm with cool. As the two most popular metallic shades, brass and chrome or gold and silver go well together and can be combined to add stylish contrast in the bathroom. However, as I mentioned above, try not to mix more than three metals in one space.
While chrome and polished nickel bathroom fixtures are trending in , brass—especially antique brass—is still in style, adding a luxurious touch to any room. Brass works well in both warm and white spaces as well as rooms with darker tones.
Use brass when you want your eye to be drawn to the fixture or metal finish. In general, brass finishes are becoming more subtle and toned down, with more of an antique or aged deep golden look, rather than yellow, pink or shiny finishes.
Something that appears to have an antique brass finish online might actually have a yellow or pink cast in person. As an alternative, you could just go with chrome, black, or nickel faucets and fixtures, which are generally more consistent in color and finish.
I will be sure to recommend that they find a zinc-nickel provider that can add the finish to the bathroom fixtures that my parents want. My bathroom is painted a dark blue. Sink faucet and towel holder are chrome to match shower hardware. To bring in another metal my vanity light is black and aged brass and cabinet knobs are aged brass.
Stuck on what metal the mirror should be. Would appreciate any advice. Hi Kay, It can be a little tricky to determine without seeing the space.
Curious if you think that tile would work on a bathroom floor with white subway tile in the shower? Our shower is white subway walls and hex black and white floor. The rest of the room is about square feet — white tub, and a light natural wood vanity is going in.
I fell in love with this tile at the store today and am thinking it might clash but love it in your space! Do you think I can have different metals for the sink faucet and the shower finishings? I am looking at doing a brushed gold for the sink faucets and a brushed bronze for the shower head and handle. Hi Ariana! Mixing light and dark fixtures for contrast is a great way to make a statement in your bathroom. I might suggest looking at a soft matte black instead of the oil rubbed bronze, as it can start to look a but dated these days.
Have fun with your makeover! I want to bring in another metal color but not sure what to go with? Any advice? Hi Eva! You can definitely bring in a secondary color as long as you repeat it at least twice in the design ie.
Hope this helps! I love this look! Looking to do this in my kitchen. My concern how it cleans. This looks so amazing!!! I have zero sense of style so our house especially bathrooms is pretty old-looking and in need of a re-do.
