The bridge faucet is the most historically significant and visually distinctive kitchen faucet design available. The silhouette — two handles connected by a horizontal bridge supporting the spout — has remained essentially unchanged for over a century because it is genuinely good design: functional, elegant, and proportionally satisfying in a way that single-lever and pull-down designs cannot quite match.

In unlacquered brass, the bridge faucet reaches its fullest expression. The warm, living gold of the brass develops a rich patina over months and years of daily use, making each faucet increasingly unique to the kitchen it inhabits. Our unlacquered brass bridge faucet collection includes over 20 designs, handcrafted in Marrakech, Morocco.

The Different Bridge Faucet Designs

Curved Legs Bridge Faucets

The most elegant bridge design. Arching curved legs rise gracefully from the countertop to the bridge and spout, creating a silhouette that is architectural and distinctive. Available with flat cross handles or lever handles. Best for farmhouse, traditional English country, and period kitchen restorations.

Clean Modern Bridge Faucets

Straight or gently curved legs with cleaner proportions suit transitional and contemporary kitchens that want the bridge format without heavy period detailing. The Malmo and Verve designs in our collection represent this direction — unlacquered brass warmth in a more restrained architectural form.

Victorian Bridge Faucets

Ornate Victorian detailing at the handle bases, valve collars, and bridge joints. The most historically detailed option. Suited to period kitchen restorations and traditional designs where authenticity matters.

Bridge Faucets with Side Sprayer or Pull-Down

For kitchens that need the practical versatility of a sprayer alongside the aesthetic of a bridge faucet. The side sprayer matches the faucet body exactly — both in finish and in proportion. Pull-down versions integrate the spray head into the faucet spout for a cleaner countertop profile.

Installation Requirements

All bridge faucets require three pre-drilled holes in the countertop or sink deck. The standard configuration is 8 inches (203mm) center-to-center between the outer holes. The center hole accommodates the spout body, while the two outer holes take the hot and cold handle assemblies.

All our bridge faucets ship with comprehensive installation hardware and include both US and UK plumbing adapters at no extra cost, ensuring compatibility regardless of your location. A standard plumber can install a bridge faucet in approximately 2–3 hours.

Which Kitchen Sinks Pair Best

• Farmhouse / apron front sinks — the definitive bridge faucet pairing. The exposed apron and the bridge silhouette are natural companions in traditional kitchen design.
• Unlacquered brass undermount sinks — faucet and sink develop complementary patinas together. See our kitchen sinks.
• Hammered copper sinks — the warmth of copper and brass together creates a particularly beautiful natural materials combination.
• Fireclay farmhouse sinks — the white fireclay and warm brass create a clean, classic contrast popular in English country and American farmhouse kitchens.
