Hello everyone,

the ceramic fixtures are set with us so far, now it’s time for the fittings. In our house, we generally want a white/gray color scheme with black accents (lamps, stair railing, chair legs, etc.). Now the idea came up to continue this in the bathroom with black fittings as well.
You read many different opinions on the internet, from: “never black fittings again” to “I am positively surprised by the black fittings.”
Does anyone have black fittings and can constructively list the pros and cons, or share their personal opinion?
The main argument is always that you see lime scale spots much more clearly than on chrome, can you confirm that? In other words, do you have to clean the black fittings regarding lime scale more often than the chrome fittings?

We would be very grateful for experiences with black fittings from you.

Regards

Yes, our children have implemented this mainstream 100%. That's right. They have a cleaning lady. Without cleaning help, I wouldn't want black fixtures. We also have some black and dark grey accents. If it's not the lime in the sanitary area, then it's the dust that you can nicely see.

We also plan to choose black fittings and hope that the planned descaling system will help against the lime scale here. I also hope that, due to the previous visibility of dust and lime scale, people might clean "earlier" to remove the lime scale. It is also much more hygienic then.

For me, black fittings are a total trend thing and not timeless. Therefore, I would be more sparing with them when it comes to relatively fixed things. But that is more of a personal matter.

Whereas fittings are not really fixed. Compared to tiles or wallpaper, the effort to change them is rather low...

Are black fittings making a comeback?

We disposed of our black fittings during the renovation a year ago. But the fittings were still accented with green and purple colors.
