Matte Black: The Year’s Hottest Faucet Finish

Is your homeowner client looking to redecorate?  It might be time to help them change an outdated faucet – And making a statement with a black matte faucet could be the answer.

So if your client is ready for an update or just wants to switch up their old faucet for a different look, we’ve got some options to inspire.

Why black faucets? They are both stunning and easy to care for. Plus, they make any home design stand out, creating a focal point that guests remember, with the form and function your homeowner will love.

Read on to see for yourself how both black bathroom faucets and black kitchen faucets are a breathtaking and convenient option to elevate the look and feel of your client’s home.

For instance this single-handle, black bathroom faucet from our Motegi collection is gorgeous in its own right. Placed along this brown, earthy basin, the matte faucet’s polished finish offers a unique contrasting look.

It’s easy to picture this faucet, combining the two elements,  in your client’s newly-designed bathroom, isn’t it?

This look would also work well with any décor they put up as its dark color will make surrounding decorations pop.

That said, not everyone wants a dramatic switch-up — some people prefer mellow and laid-back. After all, when we spend time in our homes we want the space to our individual liking. A black faucet is optimal to pull modern yet relaxing décor together.

In this shot, a classic white counter — a popular color choice for those self-care areas in the home — is paired with our single-handle bathroom faucet from our MOD collection. Notice the white candles and the clear soap dish around the sink. Finally, the gray and white brick wall ties everything together seamlessly.

Our black bathroom faucet stands out in itself as a beautiful statement piece, a perfect fit for the atmosphere.

Some people argue that wooden tones are traditional and antiquated. In reality, the random patterns on wood contribute to what could be an immaculate finish to your client’s redesign, whether it’s traditional or modern.

And if you think a black faucet throws off the nature-inspired vibe, think again.

See how Pioneer’s minimalistic black bathroom faucet synthesizes with the warm orange light of the hanging fixture, the wide black-framed mirror and the white countertop.

Now, imagine a matching matte black shower &  accessories and setting out a beautiful orchid on the countertop. With elements like this, you can help your client orchestrate their ultimate bathroom aesthetic.

Last but certainly not least, in our opinion, the kitchen. A faucet truly makes a kitchen.  The kitchen sink is where most of our kitchen adventures begin and end. A black kitchen faucet is the perfect addition to make the experience even more interesting and functional!

In the shot above, you can see how our i3 Pre-Rinse Spring Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet adds appeal with a modern twist and accentuates the kitchen’s sensible yet quirky feel.

And it will look equally beautiful with any décor — as most colors would pop against the black faucet.

We’ve discussed the design benefits of black faucets and how they add interest to function but what about the practical advantages?

Here are a few to consider: 

1. Easy to clean and maintain 

While we love other faucet colors, black matte stands out because it is smudge resistant, so your client get to keep their sleek and elegant look intact throughout the day. 

In addition, black matte is easier to clean when they do get some kitchen grime on it, requiring only a wipe down with a wet rag. Talk about convenience!

2. Pairs great with any color

We’ve seen how dreamy a black matte bathroom faucet with a white countertop works together. Well, black matte blends just as well with nearly all other commonly used colors of a home. 

The soft nature of matte means there’ll be no clashes with other tones in your design, so you can let your creativity flourish.

3. Blends with other black accents

Your client likely has other accents in their home featuring the beloved color black. Black detailing and other decorations harmonize perfectly with a matte black faucet.

And if the detailing around the home isn’t black, you’ll still enjoy total cohesion since black is such a universal color.

There’s no limit to the inspiration you can get from our range of matte black faucets. And, as we’ve shown, it’s a perfect fit for your client’s dream kitchen & bath design.

Now that we’ve explained why your client needs a black faucet, you might want to head on over to our 2022 catalog for the full breakdown of all of the products we offer. And if you have any questions, feel free to contact us anytime.
