Three-Piece Widespread Control in a Warm Gold Finish
The Karran Gillingham is a double-handle, three-hole widespread bathroom faucet that gives vanities with wider-spaced drillings a clean, separated layout and a warm Gold finish to anchor a coordinated bathroom design. Its configuration places two independent handles away from the spout, giving each temperature its own control and matching the look of a curated vanity rather than a builder-grade fixture.
Key Features
• Widespread three-hole mounting positions the spout and two handles as separate pieces across the vanity's wider drillings for an intentional, furniture-like appearance.
• Double-handle design provides independent hot and cold control for precise temperature adjustment.
• Gold finish delivers a warm, on-trend tone that coordinates with brushed brass fixtures, warm wood vanity cabinets, and natural stone countertops.
• Lead-free brass construction meets potable-water material standards throughout the faucet body.
• 7.87-inch overall height suits standard undermount and top mount vanity bowls where clearance between the spout and the bowl bottom is a fit consideration.
Where This Faucet Fits the Job
Widespread faucets are the right call when the vanity top is drilled with three separate holes spaced for independent handle placement — common on larger single-sink vanities, double-vanity runs, and higher-end bathroom builds. The separated layout gives designers and homeowners more visual real estate on the countertop, and it allows the handles to sit at a natural reach from the bowl without crowding the spout. The Gillingham's proportions and overall height suit standard-depth undermount and drop-in lavatory bowls; it is not intended for above-counter vessel installations, where a taller spout height would be needed for clearance.
Finish and Construction
The Gold finish gives the Gillingham a warm character that reads differently than chrome or brushed nickel — it works particularly well in bathrooms that lean into warmer palettes: honey-toned oak or walnut cabinetry, creamy or warm-white countertops, and accessories in complementary tones like champagne bronze or matte brass. The lead-free brass body underneath the finish is the standard material specification across Karran's bathroom faucet line, keeping the construction consistent with potable-water requirements. As with all finish-matched bathroom hardware, confirm the Gold tone against other Gold-finished pieces in the same space before ordering, since finish names can read differently across manufacturers and material types.
A Natural Choice for Larger Vanities and Renovation Work
Cabinet shops finishing a bathroom build, designers specifying a complete vanity package, and homeowners renovating a primary bathroom will find the Gillingham a practical anchor piece. Its widespread configuration makes it appropriate wherever a top or vanity has been drilled for a three-piece set, and the Gold finish gives it enough visual weight to carry a statement vanity without requiring additional hardware layering. Contractors fitting out a higher-end primary bath — where the sink, faucet, and accessories are expected to read as a coordinated set — will appreciate that the Gillingham covers the faucet spec cleanly in one SKU.
Will this faucet work on a vessel sink?
No. At 7.87 inches overall height, the Gillingham is sized for standard undermount and top mount lavatory bowls. Vessel bowls sit above the counter and need a taller faucet for the spout to reach comfortably over the rim. Choose a vessel-height faucet for above-counter bowl installations.
Does this faucet include a drain assembly?
Drain inclusion varies by KBF model. Check the spec sheet or product listing for this SKU to confirm whether a pop-up drain is listed as included or sold separately, and whether your sink bowl has an overflow — that determines which drain version you need.
What hole spacing does widespread installation require?
Widespread faucets mount across three separate holes, with the two handle holes positioned farther apart than a centerset layout. Confirm the exact hole spacing against the Gillingham's specification sheet before ordering to ensure it matches your vanity top's drilling.
How does the Gold finish hold up over time?
Karran applies a PVD finish process across its faucet line for durability. Clean the faucet with mild soap and water and avoid abrasive cleaners or pads that can scratch the surface.
A Faucet That Earns Its Place on a Finished Vanity
The Gillingham brings together a practical widespread layout, precise dual-handle control, and a Gold finish that works hard in warm-palette bathrooms — making it a solid specification for any vanity top already drilled for a three-piece set.
