Finishes

Perrin & Rowe, Triflow and Hawthorn Hill uniquely offer New Zealand specifiers and home owners a selection of premium quality finishes: Chrome, polished Nickel, Pewter (brushed Nickel), Gold, English Bronze (Perrin & Rowe only) and uncoated bare brass.  Contemporary taps from Perrin & Rowe and Triflow are available in their Chrome and Pewter finishes only.

The thickness of all plated finishes far exceeds the required depth, providing superior appearance and longevity. 

Chrome: A shiny finish with a hint of blue for a classical or contemporary feel.
Polished Nickel: A shiny finish with a golden glow. If left, Nickel will develop an aged patina (similar to silverware) and an occasional polish will restore its original gleam.
Pewter: A brushed Nickel finish to perfectly complement stainless steel sinks and appliances.
Gold: This finish, made with real gold, gives a luxurious look that lasts.
English Bronze: A rich, satin, chocolate finish for a bold, distinctive look. (Perrin & Rowe products only.  Bathroom products by special order.)
Bare brass: As a living finish, the initial polished appearance of brass will mature over time to develop a patina and unique character reminiscent of old brassware.


NOTE: Bathroom tapware and accessories are generally available in English Bronze and bare brass by special order with a four to eight week delivery time, though we do maintain a small stock of English Bronze and bare brass classical and French country kitchen taps.
