Please Note: Finishes shown on this page are a computer screen representation of the actual finishes we offer. Due to the varying quality of monitors (pixels, size, etc.) there is a slight variation between the website samples shown here and how they appear on the actual product.

Different manufacturers often use the same names for finishes that can vary from company to company. We have a listing that matches finishes from other companies so you can find the right one to blend with your current decor. As some manufacturers use different plating facilities, an exact match can be difficult to find and there is no guarantee of consistency even from the same company. However, because Mountain Plumbing Products uses only one exclusive plating facility for their finishes, our finishes will not vary.
