Cafe Brown Silgranite sink-need faucet advice

14 years ago

I am getting a Silgranit sink in Cafe Brown. I see that Blanco has faucets now that they make in Cafe Brown as well. However, they don't make a soap dispenser in Cafe Brown. Can anyone recommend a pull-down or pull-out faucet with an oil rubbed bronze finish and matching soap dispenser?

I just bought an anthracite Blanco 515-555. I think you need to look at brushed stainless / nickle . As finding faucets - air gap - soap dispensers ,in matching tones / color could be difficult .

IMHO the stainless accents the darker sink .As the cafe brown is as dark as the anthracite.

I just had my granite and cafe brown silgranite sink installed last week. I went with a stainless steel faucet with sprayer and soap dispenser...I love it! The faucet matches all the stainless appliances. These pics were taken before the backsplash was installed...hubby is working on the backsplash as we speak so I'll be back to shop completed kitchen pics this week...I Hope!

I was going to use the round silgranite, but it takes such large cab that I went with the oblong instead. I really like the brown, goes extremely well with my capella granite. It's a warm, dark brown that makes a big impact but really doesn't call attention to itself. Both my kithen faucets are ORB Moen Showhouse models because in part because I wanted the colors to match. Normally, I don't care if things are 'matchy', but I also don't care for it when two similar items are almost but not quite the same color, so it looks like you tried to match but failed.

Okay, so I FINALLY found a faucet - who knew that this would take so darned long?! :D I haven't actually seen it in person, but hopefully it'll arrive by the end of the week (since they're installing the countertops on Friday -eeek!!). I figured that since I've seen so many different brands' ORB and while they are all different, there wasn't one that I didn't like. And I'm not trying to "match" anything. Plus - it's made in the USA! Pretty amazing these days! Here is a link that might be useful: Elkay Navaro Faucet

I've seen the anthracite with granites in the brown/cream range with just a bit of black flecking, and it looks very nice. But have you seen the new brown silgranit? A dark, warm color that I think will work really well with stone from the brown family. Haven't seen them in person yet, but someone posted pictures here that were very impressive.

I have a stainless Kohler sink so can't comment re: your sink color, but I do have the Simplice faucet in vibrant stainless and the Kohler sink flange, which is very nice. I also ordered a drain strainer basket (that little piece that you put over the drain so water can drain but bits of food get caught in the basket) from Kohler. It's fine, but someone recently posted a much nicer one from a different mfr. It was standard size, though, so should fit your drain. It was maybe 2 inches deep, shaped kind of like a bowl with vertical sides, so it would hold much more stuff. I'm sorry I can't remember who posted it. It was too late for me.
