Widespread Control in a Bold Gunmetal Gray Finish
The Karran Gillingham is a three-hole widespread lavatory faucet with separate hot and cold handles, built for vanities that call for dedicated two-handle control and a finish that makes a statement. The Gunmetal Gray surface pairs with dark or mixed-metal bathroom schemes where a standard chrome or stainless faucet would disappear into the background.
Key Features
• Widespread three-hole configuration positions the spout and two handles independently across your vanity's spaced drillings.
• Dual-handle design gives separate hot and cold control for precise temperature dialing.
• Gunmetal Gray finish delivers a deep, matte-dark surface that holds up in daily bathroom use.
• Lead-free brass construction meets potable-water material requirements throughout the faucet body.
• 7.87-inch overall height suits standard undermount and top mount vanity bowls.
Where the Gillingham Widespread Fits
Widespread faucets serve vanities drilled with three separate holes spaced to accept independent spout and handle mounting. That layout is common on larger bathroom vanities, console-style vanities, and any sink deck built with enough real estate to spread the controls apart. The separate handle position also suits users who prefer a defined hot-and-cold dial rather than a single-lever mix, and it gives a designer more flexibility in how the hardware reads across the vanity surface.
The Gunmetal Gray finish earns its place in bathrooms anchored by matte black fixtures, dark hardware pulls, or mixed-metal schemes that use warm and cool tones together. It reads darker and less reflective than chrome or brushed nickel, which makes it a deliberate choice rather than a default, and it coordinates naturally with Karran sink drains and accessories available in matching finishes.
Construction Built for the Vanity Environment
The Gillingham's faucet body is lead-free brass, the standard for potable-water fixtures and the base material that holds machined tolerances across the valve seat and supply connections. The Gunmetal Gray surface is applied as a durable PVD finish, a physical vapor deposition process that bonds the color at a molecular level for resistance to the humidity and cleaning cycles a bathroom faucet faces over years of use. At 7.87 inches in overall height, the spout profile suits standard-height vanity bowls, including the undermount and top mount configurations most commonly paired with widespread faucets on deck-mounted installs.
Designers, Contractors, and Homeowners Finishing a Complete Look
Interior designers specifying a full vanity package will find the Gunmetal Gray consistent with dark fixture trends that have moved well beyond the accent phase into mainstream bath design. Contractors installing on production schedules appreciate a faucet that ships with a known finish name rather than a generic descriptor, so finish-coordination conversations with clients are straightforward. Homeowners updating a master or guest bath get a polished widespread look without chrome's high-glare reflectivity, which can read clinical in warmer or lower-light bath settings. The Gillingham is a standard-height deck-mount faucet suited to traditional, transitional, and contemporary interiors where the hardware is part of the room's visual story.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this faucet work with a vessel sink?
The Gillingham's 7.87-inch overall height is sized for standard undermount and top mount vanity bowls. Vessel sinks sit above the countertop and generally require a taller faucet to clear the bowl rim. This model is not the right fit for a vessel installation.
Is a pop-up drain assembly included?
A drain assembly is not confirmed as included with this SKU. A compatible pop-up drain should be ordered separately, and the drain version must match your bowl's overflow status — use an overflow-compatible drain with a bowl that has an integral overflow, and a standard pop-up drain with a bowl that does not.
What hole spacing does this faucet require?
As a widespread faucet, the Gillingham mounts through three separate holes with the spout and handles independently positioned. The exact hole spacing for this model is shown in the structured spec block on this page.
Will Gunmetal Gray coordinate with matte black fixtures?
Gunmetal Gray is a distinct dark matte finish, deeper and slightly warmer than a straight matte black. It pairs well in mixed-metal schemes but is not an exact color match to matte black. Order a finish sample or compare alongside existing fixtures before specifying for a tight coordination match.
A Faucet That Completes the Vanity, Not Just Serves It
The Gillingham Widespread in Gunmetal Gray gives the vanity a deliberate, design-forward anchor, with the practical build quality of lead-free brass and a PVD finish that holds its look through years of daily use.
