Top Kitchen Tap Finishes
Chrome is no longer the go-to finish for your kitchen tapware. There is now an endless number of finishes that have been released to compliment a kitchens hardware and appliances finish and trends. In fact, at Abey, we have over 15 finishes to choose from! This includes metallic finishes such as brushed gold and bronze taps right through to blacks and greys. Today we will go through the top kitchen tap finishes currently on the market.
GESSI Taps
With a genuine Italian manufacturing company, GESSI’s focus is on uncompromising craftsmanship and a new style of living with designs that are to be experienced and not just admired.
GESSI has created a range of finishes that draw upon the current metallic trends. Their brushed finishes of Black Metal and Copper have been created through a PVD finish. A PVD coating is particularly recommended for tapware as it allows hardness and is resistance to abrasions, scratches and corrosion. Typically processed with a thin layer, PVD coating offers exceptional aesthetic features as well as guarantees a very long life for the durability.
ARMANDO VICARIO Taps
Armando Vicario is our other Italian-made Tapware brand. Their well-articulated product range stems from their modern single lever mixers to more traditional old-fashion pieces.
Their modern Brushed Gold finish in their TINKD is one of most popular kitchen tapware products. Placed against a black or white sink, the brushed gold finish makes the kitchen mixer pop.
With their traditional tapware, their Bronze finish in their PALAIS or 2050 Kitchen Mixer draws out the intricate design. Combined with a Chambord Fireclay Farmhouse sink, the bronze finish encapsulates the aesthetics of a traditional, Hampton or modern farmhouse design.
GARETH ASHTON Taps
Abey’s own Gareth Ashton Collection is a contemporary style of kitchen mixers that uses the latest technology to create a perfect addition to any kitchen space. With most of the collection having a variety of finishes, the range is also complimented with a collection of mixers that have gooseneck or square neck designs as well as pull out options.
New to the Gareth Ashton Collection is the KTA014 Kitchen Mixer. This mixer comes in the modern metallic finishes of Black Metal, Artisan Copper and Eureka Gold. These kitchen mixers also match perfectly with our Piazza Kitchen Sink Collection to make the ultimate modern looking kitchen.
Our kitchen mixers finishes are all manufactured to endure the test of time. The finishes ranges have all been developed and ruthlessly tested within our own manufacturing facilities to ensure they are the best of class both aesthetically as well as functionally. Testing is done to ensure the finishes to not tarnish nor peel off.
