Handcrafted in England from solid wood and finished in Metropolitan Black, the Chelsea Metropolitan Black Classic Toilet Seat from Rutland London combines traditional English craftsmanship with a bold and sophisticated aesthetic. Designed to complement Rutland London's collection of luxury sanitaryware, its deep painted finish provides a distinctive alternative to natural timber and conventional White toilet seats.
Each Chelsea toilet seat is crafted by hand in England from solid wood before being carefully prepared and finished in Metropolitan Black. The resulting appearance can be used to create a striking contrast against White vitreous china or a more tonal relationship when paired with Black sanitaryware, providing considerable versatility across traditional and transitional bathroom interiors.
The Chelsea is completed with a substantial solid brass bar hinge, introducing a decorative metal detail that can be coordinated with the wider brassware specification throughout the bathroom. Durable underside buffers provide additional support between the solid wooden seat and WC pan during everyday use.
Designed specifically to complement Rutland London's sanitaryware collection, the Chelsea Metropolitan Black Classic Toilet Seat is compatible with our full range of WC suites, including high level, low level, close coupled, back to wall and wall hung configurations. Its dark painted finish makes it particularly effective where the toilet seat is intended to become a considered part of the bathroom's wider colour and material palette.
Due to the traditional construction and solid brass bar hinge mechanism, the Chelsea does not incorporate a soft-close function. This is an intentional characteristic of the design, preserving the substantial metal hinge construction and traditional appearance of the toilet seat.
For luxury villas, private residences, hotels and interior design projects throughout Dubai, the wider UAE and Middle East, the Chelsea Metropolitan Black provides a distinctive toilet seat option for bathrooms incorporating natural marble, richly veined stone, dark timber and handcrafted metal fittings. The combination of Metropolitan Black and a contrasting brassware finish can introduce an elegant point of detail within both traditional and more contemporary luxury interiors.
The Chelsea Metropolitan Black Classic Toilet Seat is available to purchase online with its solid brass hinge finished 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 toilet seat is installed.
The solid brass hinge can also be produced across Rutland London's portfolio of 40+ handcrafted finishes, spanning Brass, Bronze, Nickel, Copper and Gold. This allows the toilet seat hinge to coordinate with basin taps, showers, flush plates, heated towel rails and other visible metalwork throughout the bathroom.
