I got the oil rubbed bronze. We have mid century wood cabinets in a Craftsman style home. These pulls really brought the two styles together without looking too modern. They really spruced up these old cabinets that most people would paint or replace. We have been using them for 10 months and they have held up perfectly. I'd say there is a little less bronze around the edges than the photo. Like a lot of oil rubbed bronze, these just seem black at a first glance.
