Matte Black vs Chrome: Choosing a Finish

A practical and aesthetic comparison of the two most popular bathroom finishes.

Chrome is the safe, timeless choice — it reflects light, enlarges small spaces and pairs with anything. Matte black makes a bolder statement and hides water spots, but shows dust more readily. Brushed gold and gunmetal sit between the two: warm, distinctive and increasingly popular in designer schemes. Match the finish across all fittings in a single room for a cohesive look.
