Combining the practicality of a close coupled toilet with the dramatic character of Black vitreous china, the Clapton Black Close Coupled WC Suite from Rutland London provides a distinctive solution for luxury bathroom interiors. Its compact cistern and pan arrangement offers the timeless character of traditional English sanitaryware without the exposed flush pipe associated with low or high level WC suites.

Crafted in England from high-quality vitreous china and complemented by carefully manufactured brass componentry, the Clapton reflects the material quality and attention to detail found throughout Rutland London's collection of luxury bathroom fittings. The rich Black ceramic provides a striking foundation for the design, creating a particularly effective contrast with the selected handcrafted brassware finish.

The defining feature of the Clapton is its close coupled configuration, with the ceramic cistern positioned directly above the WC pan to create a neat and relatively compact installation. This makes the Clapton a versatile choice for principal bathrooms, guest bathrooms and hospitality interiors where distinctive traditional styling and efficient use of space are equally important.

A lever-operated six litre single-flush cistern provides the flushing mechanism, while the cold water inlet can be configured on either the left or right-hand side. This additional flexibility can assist when coordinating the WC suite with the project's plumbing arrangement and surrounding bathroom furniture.

The Clapton can be specified with a selection of handcrafted English toilet seats according to the material palette and aesthetic requirements of the bathroom. Options include English Oak, Mahogany, Cambridge White and Metropolitan Black, providing considerable scope to create either a contrasting or more tonal appearance against the Black ceramic. Each toilet seat is completed with a substantial brass bar hinge coordinated with the selected brassware finish.

The WC suite can also be supplied with either a straight or angled ceramic pan connector, providing further flexibility according to the installation requirements of the project. Coordinating brass pan screw caps are supplied as standard, ensuring that even the smaller visible details are considered as part of the finished installation.

For luxury villas, private residences, hotels and interior design projects throughout Dubai, the wider UAE and Middle East, the Clapton provides a distinctive alternative to conventional White sanitaryware. Its combination of Black ceramic, traditional proportions and decorative metalwork is particularly effective alongside richly veined marble, natural stone, timber joinery and layered luxury bathroom finishes.

The Clapton Black Close Coupled WC Suite is available to purchase online with visible brass components 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 WC suite is installed.

The visible brass components of the Clapton 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 WC suite to coordinate with basin taps, showers, mirrors, heated towel rails and other visible metalwork throughout the bathroom.
