Elegant retro accent for modern bathrooms

This set of external components is a key element for concealed installations, adding character inspired by the classic design of the 1920s. Instead of standard, raw solutions, the product offers a sophisticated look thanks to a 23-karat gold-plated finish. This surface treatment not only enhances aesthetics but also ensures resistance to corrosion and loss of luster in humid conditions typical of bathrooms. The cross handle is not merely decorative – its ergonomic shape facilitates precise control of water flow, appreciated by both installers seeking functionality and users valuing daily comfort.

Set composition and ease of installation

For the installer, it is important that the product is a complete set ready for immediate mounting on a concealed valve. No additional parts need to be purchased – the box contains everything necessary for the final finish: a brass cross handle covered with a gold layer, a sleeve ensuring a tight connection with the valve mechanism, an adjustable escutcheon allowing for perfect adaptation to wall irregularities or ceramic tiles, and an adjustable extension compensating for installation errors of the concealed valve cartridge (mounting depth).

It is worth noting the "COLD" (cold water) marking on the element. This is crucial for safety and ergonomics – the user immediately knows they are operating the cold water supply, preventing accidental burns or confusion when operating two separate valves (cold and hot). The absence of a ceramic cartridge in this specific model means it is a finishing element designed to work with a mechanical valve mechanism (typically cone-type or similar), which is typical for retro styles imitating past technical solutions.

Application and compatibility

The product is ideal for vintage, classic, or eclectic arrangements where the contrast between modern infrastructure and old style is the main design concept. The 23-karat gold-plated surface harmonizes best with black or white elements, creating a refined visual contrast.

These elements are made of brass and coated with a 23-karat gold layer, guaranteeing durability and a luxurious appearance for years of use. The cross handle not only references the retro style but also allows for precise control of water flow. Thanks to the COLD marking, the user is certain about the type of water supply – cold – eliminating the risk of error when operating a two-way system. The escutcheon and extension feature an adjustment function, allowing for easy compensation of any installation errors related to the depth of the concealed valve or the thickness of the plaster and tiles. This ensures a neat and watertight finish without the need for complex wall modifications. It is a solution dedicated to those seeking a unique style in the bathroom who do not want to compromise on the functionality of a modern hydraulic installation.
