Today’s Crush: Gold/Brass/Bronze Kitchen Sinks
On Sunday, I went on the Tour of Homes (which is a part of the Cathedral Antiques Show) and in one of the homes, there was this gold sink. I nearly died. And apparently, I’m not the only one because I posted this photo that night on Instagram and people lost their minds. Last I checked it had 96 “likes” which is the most likes any of my photos has ever received.
Anyway, as usual, I started investigating and found these gold, brass, bronze and copper beauties from an Italian company called Restart:
Dying.
Obviously, flying to Florence to visit the showroom (not to mention the logistics involved in shipping) is not a realistic option for most people so I did some more research for stateside sources.
I found two. First, there are these great looking ones from a company in Idaho called Rocky Mountain Hardware:
These run between $8,500 and $16,000.
At the lower end, I found these from homeclick.com:
These are priced between $1,200 and $2,000.
This is one of those things I never knew I wanted but now that I’ve seen it has me asking myself “Why do I not have one?!” Have you seen one in the flesh? Thoughts?
I have slowly been moving towards more gold and brass finishes and this post just put me over the edge. All of these sinks are gorgeous!
I just installed Rocky Mountain Hardware gold sink and fixtures in my bathroom–and they are so gorgeous. A beautiful gold/bronze patina that is the centerpiece of our remodel. So gorgeous.
Thanks so much for sharing! It’s always good to have real testimonials!
I did, I gasped when I saw that top photo. Man, I wanted to go on Sunday. Mama may need to take a little dip into that college fund…
I am so in-love with the gold kitchen sink. I wanted to get one for my kitchen.
Love! But here’s a (dumb) question-
That high end sink with the three sinks- little skinny one in the middle- what is that for? Looks like it would fit one of those deep fat fryer baskets…. Pray tell?
Chilling your wine bottle?
Not dumb at all! I’ve only seen these in restaurants/commercial spaces which use them to meet regulations about how food and cleanup is handled. I imagine it could come in handy at home though.
