What is the difference between venetian bronze and oil rubbed bronze?

Delta doesn't have an oil rubbed bronze, their version is called Venetian bronze, and while very similar is slightly different in finish. It would blend Ok together if the fixtures were in the same bathroom as long as they were not right next to each other, in my opinion.

I would consider it a bronze. Mine was very dark almost dark brown in color. Looks good though.

It's a very rich, dark bronze/brown. You could get by with either black or brown accessories with a nice match. We love the quality and color!

We purchased the set in oil rubbed bronze but didn't keep it due to it being defective. We did not repurchase the set and I don't remember the particulars of the lock system.

I bought this for my in-laws. I couldn't remember how dark it was until I was over there tonight. It is very much the classic oil-rubbed bronze (dark, almost black) look. The picture on Amazon makes it look much lighter than it is.

I myself would not put the bronze one on a Stainless Sink. The Brushed nickel is much more attractive as it matches the look.

It is dark brown oil rubbed bronze in color. I LOVE how is looks in my bathroom with my sink faucet accessories. if your faucet is dark, it will match.

They are actually the same. The second one with the measurements is just a clearer picture of it. I like mine, but it's hard to match things like a soap dispenser because it isn't just a bronze color. It has maybe a little purple to it. Again I still like it but it wasn't exactly what I thought I was getting.

Sorry I don't know... I never installed it.. It turned out to be almost black and I wanted a true oil rubbed bronze look. Warning for anymore who buys a product from this company. If it's over a month they won't take it back. My husband passed away and now I have to rely on friends and family to help out with projects like this now. By the time someone came to install it and I realized it didn't match it was over a month. So, now I am stuck with a faucet I don't want or need.

This one is Satin Nickel. There is a two letter color code after the model number. SN for Satin Nickel, PB for polished brass, RB for oil rubbed bronze. The one you are looking to avoid is called polished chrome or polished nickel.

I used a tall, single handle chrome faucet and drain. I'm no decorator but I would think the bronze would be too much brown. The matte finish of the sink seems match well with the chrome.

The venetian bronze finish on this handheld shower EXACTLY matches the other Delta venetian bronze fixtures that were already in our bathroom. If you are unsure, I would suggest going to a big box and finding any Delta fixture that is "venetian bronze" and taking a look. This is what you will get. If you look VERY closely, there are goldish streaks in the finish. I have been extremely happy with this fixture because it is an exact match and it works VERY well. The streaks in the picture are more pronounced than they are on the actual item.

It is more bronze colored than pewter--definitely more burnished, dull-not glossy, antiqued color.
