A freestanding faucet is a type of plumbing fixture that stands independently, rather than being mounted to a wall or sink. It is commonly used in bathrooms and kitchens, providing a stylish and modern look. These faucets often come with a tall spout, allowing for easy access to water for various tasks. Freestanding faucets are typically paired with freestanding bathtubs or sinks, enhancing the overall design of the space. They can be made from various materials, including brass, stainless steel, and chrome, and are available in different styles to match any decor.
