Handmade to order in England from substantial 32mm diameter DZR brass tube, the Imperial Towel Bar from Rutland London combines traditional English craftsmanship with an elegant and substantial architectural form. Distinguished by its generous 75mm diameter brass wall plates, the Imperial provides a refined solution for hanging towels within carefully considered luxury bathroom interiors.
Each Imperial Towel Bar is handmade to order at Rutland London's Hampshire factory, where the DZR brass tube and individual components are carefully prepared and assembled to create the finished product. The substantial 32mm diameter tubing provides a reassuring sense of quality and permanence, while allowing the selected handcrafted brassware finish to become an important element within the wider bathroom specification.
A defining feature of the Imperial is its 75mm brass wall plates, which create a substantial and carefully proportioned connection between the towel bar and finished wall. These generously sized circular plates introduce an elegant architectural detail while providing a natural relationship with the traditional proportions found throughout Rutland London's wider collection of bathroom brassware.
As the Imperial is manufactured individually to order, bespoke sizes can be produced to suit specific project requirements. This allows the width of the towel bar to be adapted to the available wall space, surrounding sanitaryware, bathroom furniture or architectural proportions of the interior, providing designers and clients with greater flexibility than a conventionally sized bathroom accessory.
The Imperial can be positioned alongside a bath, shower enclosure or vanity area to provide convenient towel storage while maintaining a restrained and elegant appearance. Its substantial brass construction makes it particularly effective where a towel bar is intended to form a considered part of the wider brassware specification rather than simply provide a functional bathroom accessory.
For luxury villas, private residences, hotels and interior design projects throughout Dubai, the wider UAE and Middle East, the ability to specify a bespoke size provides valuable flexibility within bathrooms incorporating natural marble, decorative stone, bespoke joinery and individually designed architectural layouts. The Imperial can be proportioned specifically for its intended location while its brassware finish can be coordinated with the surrounding bathroom fittings.
Please note: the Imperial is an unheated towel bar and is not designed to function as a heated towel rail. It cannot be fitted with an electric heating element or configured for connection to a hydronic heating system.
The Imperial Towel Bar is available to purchase online in Polished (Unlacquered) Brass. As a living finish, Polished (Unlacquered) Brass will naturally age and develop a distinctive patina over time, with the rate and extent of this change dependent upon the environment in which the towel bar is installed.
The Imperial can also be produced across Rutland London's portfolio of 40+ handcrafted finishes, spanning Brass, Bronze, Nickel, Copper and Gold. This extensive selection allows the towel bar to coordinate with basin taps, showers, bathroom accessories, mirrors and other visible Rutland London brassware throughout the interior.
