Dark. Metallic. Sophisticated. And engineered for durability. 🖤🚿
If you love the look of a dark bathroom finish but aren't sold on a traditional matte black, take a closer look at hansgrohe Brushed Black Chrome.
Shown here in our showroom is the hansgrohe Ecostat Square Thermostatic Trim with Volume Control & Diverter, paired with the Metropol Tub Spout and Raindance E 300 Showerhead & Shower Arm — all in Brushed Black Chrome.
What makes this finish particularly interesting? Brushed Black Chrome is a metallic PVD finish, rather than a traditional powder-coated finish. PVD, or Physical V***r Deposition, creates a very thin metallic coating through a vacuum process. Hansgrohe describes its PVD finishes as exceptionally resistant to scratching and cleaning agents, and identifies PVD as its most durable finish technology among the four finish technologies it discusses.
That makes Brushed Black Chrome a fantastic option for clients who want the depth and drama of a dark finish, but prefer the characteristics of a metallic PVD surface.
And the look is incredible. The subtle brushed texture combined with the deep black-chrome tone gives it a richness that you simply don't get from every black finish. Hansgrohe specifically positions Brushed Black Chrome as one of its FinishPlus metallic finishes, designed to bring a sophisticated, modern accent to the bathroom.
The Ecostat Square also brings functionality to the design, with thermostatic temperature control, volume control and a 100°F safety stop, while the Raindance E 300 delivers a generous 11⅞" × 11⅞" Rain spray experience.
If you're planning a bathroom remodel and want to explore finishes beyond standard chrome and matte black, come visit Crawford Supply Morton Grove and see Brushed Black Chrome in person. Photos don't always capture the depth and character of a specialty finish like this. 🛁
Come shop hansgrohe for your next kitchen & bath project.
