The aluminum half-round comes in brown and white only. Here's a close-up showing the types of brackets we prefer to use to handle this type of guttering.

Bottom view of 6" half-round aluminum gutter installed with 6" half-round hangers every 2 feet.

Two things to take into consideration when choosing this sort of guttering are, they:

 - are not seamless
 - only come in 20' sections

 

The owner of this house requested copper guttering to accent the house's lines.

This house features 6" half-round copper gutter with 4" round copper downspouts (radius gutter also pictured).

2005 Progressive Farmer Idea House and Farmstead

We used 6" half-round aluminum gutter with 4" round downspout on this house. We changed the color of the guttering as it came down the side of the house, to make it blend into the materials behind it. If you look closely you can see the guttering and the transitions.

Southern Living -   The Woodside Manor

On the Woodside Manor for Southern Living, we used 6" half-round gutter with 4" round copper downspouts. Compare the look of this house with the white brick one (2 above this one) and you can see that copper guttering can be used effectively with very diverse types of architecture and materials.
