Handmade Antique Brass Bridge Kitchen Faucet — Artisan-Crafted, Solid Brass,

Our handmade antique brass bridge kitchen faucets are forged from solid, high-grade brass by skilled artisans — each one shaped, finished, and polished entirely by hand. The result is a two-handle bridge faucet that carries the quiet authority of a century-old fixture, yet performs flawlessly in the modern kitchen. Five distinct bridge silhouettes let you match your exact aesthetic, whether you're designing a warm farmhouse kitchen, a Victorian-inspired butler's pantry, or a sleek transitional space that demands real metal, not plating.

Every faucet we make is a made-to-order piece. Your finish is freshly applied, your ceramic cartridges are new, and your faucet arrives ready to install. This is not mass production. This is craft.

Installation

Designed for easy DIY installation or professional fitting in under an hour. Tools needed: adjustable wrench, basin wrench, plumber's putty or silicone sealant, Teflon tape.

Turn off water supply valves under the sink.
Thread supply lines through mounting holes. For 1-hole sinks, attach the included deck plate first.
Secure the faucet body from below — hand-tight, then 1/4 turn with a wrench.
Connect hot and cold supply lines to shut-off valves with Teflon tape on threads.
Open valves slowly, check for leaks, and run water for 60 seconds to flush manufacturing residue.

Care and Patina

Your antique brass faucet is finished without lacquer — intentionally. The living brass surface will develop a rich, deepening patina with use. This is the natural beauty of real brass.

Wipe dry after each use with a soft cloth to prevent hard-water spots.
Clean with warm water and mild dish soap only. No bleach, ammonia, vinegar, or abrasive cleaners.
To slow patina: apply a thin coat of natural beeswax or Renaissance Wax every 3-6 months.
To restore: buff gently with 0000-grade steel wool, rinse, and re-wax.
