The unlacquered brass bridge kitchen faucet with polished finish — for kitchens that want the warmth of living brass with a bright, luminous starting point. The polished surface catches light beautifully from day one, then mellows naturally over time into the deep honey-amber tones that make unlacquered brass so enduringly desirable. Solid brass throughout. No hollow sections, no chrome plating, no compromises.
Polished Unlacquered Brass — A Brighter, More Luminous Beginning
Most unlacquered brass faucets arrive with a satin or brushed surface. The polished finish starts brighter — a mirror-like quality that brings immediate luminosity to the sink area. Over months and years, this surface weathers gracefully into a warm, glowing patina that no manufactured coating can replicate. Classic bridge design, two cross handle operation, three-hole installation in 5.9" or 8" spreads. Optional matching side sprayer available.
The Unlacquered Brass Difference
Unlike coated faucets that chip and dull over time, our polished unlacquered brass develops a rich, natural patina with every use. This living finish deepens in character — becoming more beautiful the longer it lives in your home. The polished starting point simply means your patina journey begins from a brighter, more reflective baseline.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between polished and standard unlacquered brass? Polished unlacquered brass has been buffed to a high, mirror-like shine before being left uncoated. Standard unlacquered brass typically arrives with a satin or brushed surface. Both will develop a natural patina over time — the polished version simply starts brighter and more reflective, producing a more dramatic early patina transformation.
Will the polished finish scratch? Like all unlacquered brass, the polished surface will develop micro-scratches and tonal variation over time. These marks are part of the living patina process and contribute to the faucet's unique character — they are considered a feature, not a defect.
What spread options are available? This faucet is available in both 5.9" and 8" center-to-center spreads to suit different sink and countertop configurations.
Perfect For
Traditional, vintage, Mediterranean, and transitional kitchens — particularly those with marble countertops, white or cream cabinetry, or unlacquered brass hardware where a brighter starting finish complements the overall design palette.
