Brushed kitchen taps have a 'brushed' metal finish, which describes the texture and appearance of the kitchen taps, not their function. A brushed finish has a matte or stain look with fine lines running in the same direction, reducing shine and making fingerprints and water spots less visible compared to alternative finishes. The taps you'll find below include various finishes, such as brushed brass, brushed gold, brushed nickel, and brushed steel — so there's an option for every kitchen style.
