Oil Rubbed Bronze Faucet Choices

Whether you are looking for a faucet for your kitchen sink, bathroom sink, or tub, you might want to consider one made out oil rubbed bronze.  If you want something different than the same old shiny silver chrome faucets that are in nearly every house, these are a good choice.  A variety of manufacturers produce these dark colored faucets and they are made in different styles.  Many of them have an old fashioned look to them, but some of them have great features as well.  Let’s take a look at some of the best oil rubbed bronze faucets available.

Oil Rubbed Bronze Kitchen Faucet

Though most of these bronze faucets are made specifically for bathrooms, there are some nice ones that fit on kitchen sinks as well.  Premier makes one that has a very high neck – 13 ½ inches high, has a single handle mounted on the side, and even has a side sprayer.  What makes this faucet different than others like it is that it is a lighter color.  While an oil rubbed bronze faucet is usually a very dark brown color, the ones made by Premier are a lighter color. This one is quite a good deal for $129.
Moen makes some nice looking oil rubbed bronze kitchen faucets as well.  The Camerist single handle kitchen faucet with pull out spout will look great on any kitchen sink and has some nifty features as well.  One of them is a spout that pulls out to become a sprayer.  This is always a good thing to have on a sink, and with a pull-out, you don’t need to clutter up your sink space with a side mounted version.  Another unique feature this faucet offers is a pause button.  I guess pause buttons aren’t just for remote controls anymore.  This faucet has one on it for when you just want to stop the flow for a second, but keep the temperature and water flow the same.

Oil Rubbed Bronze Bathroom Faucet

There are many of oil rubbed bronze lavatory faucets to choose from, and they come in a dazzling array of styles.  You can easily get one that has the styles of most other bathroom sink faucets, or you can get an original one.  One of the most unique ones is the Danze Opulence single handle faucet.  It has a beautiful, old fashioned look all its own, a single handle on top, and mounts onto the sink with a single hole.  The Danze Opulence line comes in different materials as well, including chrome, brushed nickel, black satin, and antique copper.  The oil rubbed bronze version is the cheapest as well, costing only around $89.
Another great looking oil rubbed bronze lavatory faucet is the Schon single post mount faucet.  This faucet has a heavy, square look to it that rises out of a single hole in the sink with a German influenced design.  The spout is open on top, which makes it a “waterfall faucet”.  If you like the style but not the color, they also come in Satin Nickel (shiny silver) and chrome.

Oil Rubbed Bronze Shower Faucet

If you want a darker color in your tub, one of the best ways to achieve that is by getting an oil rubbed bronze bath faucet set.  Depending on the model, they can come with a shower head, drain lever, levers (either single handle or hot and cold separately), and a tub faucet.  You can get other oil rubbed bronze accessories individually as well, such as a tub strainer drain, a bathtub overflow, or a toilet flush lever.

  1. I just wanted to chime in about the whole-house shutoff as well. Ours is in our garage near the water heater. Definately easier than the meters shutoff. And less spiders.

    Stacy, for the cartridge, you might just take a picture of the faucet and take it to your parts store of choice. Hopefully they have someone who knows what they are doing and could help. Just knowing it is Delta from about 1995 might be enough, but the picture would help them as well.
