Both the Champagne Bronze Delta faucets and the Brizo stainless steel faucets we bought were above the cost of what you could get a standard faucet for in stainless steel with a traditional design. However, we were able to maximize discounts by shopping online for the lowest prices which sometimes involve a percentage off discount sale since Delta/Brizo and other brands put a cap on how low resellers can advertise the list prices. Also be aware that some faucets being ordered online right now are being delayed weeks out due to lower capacities in manufacturing and shipping delays due to the pandemic. Our faucet order placed last week is projected to arrive in 3 weeks. If cost is a big concern, maybe the polished nickel might be a compromise after all, but again, polished nickel is frequently higher in cost than stainless steel, so if it was the gold/brass color you really wanted, then polished nickel is only getting you halfway to that goal for an increased cost anyway.

Have Delta champagne bronze in kitchen with brushed brads pulls on cabinets along with pendant that have brushed brass components. I found it pretty easy to match of find coordinating pieces with good and brown undertones. Distance between items helps.

Hi Anul- The quality is good. I’ve been used to a more rounded seamless corners so maybe once a week I find I need to pay attention to the corners, mostly the one closest to drain which I have to lift the grill to get into to clean. I LOVE my Mirragio Calacatta Gold quartz! I’m not home and will add pics later although I ‘think’ I already posted pics under another thread if you search my user name. Again my backsplash tile and under cabinet lighting are still not in so it’s still not the finished look.

Honestly this one of those dilemmas that make me crazy if this was the plan from the beginning and you knew the glass knobs were not going to match why did you choose the other hardware i nthat color. IMO get the knobs now that you like and I have to say no one will ever figure out they don't match the faucet really move on.
