Sorry, ORB = oil-rubbed bronze! :) Our backdoor hardware is oil-rubbed bronze, which I hated at the start of our remodel, but which actually looks more at home now that it's done--it plays off of the black fixtures, I think. (We also replaced the door with a stained rather than painted door, which helped a lot too--so rather than "random finishes," we have the nickel on the cabinets, the ORB on the stained door, the brass on the painted doors/windows, and the black on the lights and accents (stove grates are black here too). Plus I totally forgot about the stainless hood, so yeah, we are not sticklers for matching finishes! (We do also have an older house, though, which I think gives us a little more freedom for finishes to vary than a newer house where everything was matchy-matchy to start with--even our windows and doors with original hardware vary in that some of the hardware and hinges have been painted over and are now "white" and some of the hardware is still brass.) Our kitchen is not open to any room except our breakfast nook, so we did match the fixture finishes there. But I don't think we needed to do that, necessarily. I would wait on your dining room fixture till the kitchen is done and see how you feel about matching versus not at that point.

Thanks Fori…I agree…this is a condo in SC and we’re going for a low-country vibe…soft grays, whites and aqua/blue/green. I think staying with the brushed nickel for the lever handles will be a nice update/upgrade and help keep the calm atmosphere.

I'm using this light fixture in Antique brass in my 1920 house - it doesn't quite match the finish of my Emtek pulls but it's close enough. https://oldebricklighting.com/products/rutland-opal-down-rod-pendant?variant=39299363700912

What brand/color did you find to match? I was just coming on here to ask the same question - I have the Kraus Bolden faucet in brushed brass. Need both cabinet pulls and knobs. I am also hoping to find a near exact match. (we chose it to match the fireplace, chandalier and other furniture hardware in nearby areas)
