Elegant elongated spouts and refined metal lever controls give the Tavistock a distinctive silhouette inspired by traditional English bathroom brassware. Without contrasting ceramic detailing, the Tavistock Long Nose Metal Lever Basin Pillar Taps allow the selected metal finish to flow continuously across the handles, tap bodies and spouts for a beautifully cohesive appearance.
Each pair is created from carefully selected brass castings, precision machined and polished before being finished to order by skilled craftsmen at Rutland London's factory in Hampshire, England. This considered combination of engineering, hand-finishing and traditional manufacturing expertise is central to the enduring quality of Rutland London bathroom brassware.
The defining long-nose spouts provide greater projection over the basin than conventional pillar taps, creating elegant proportions and a stronger visual presence. Paired with streamlined metal levers, this extended profile gives the Tavistock a versatile aesthetic capable of sitting comfortably within both traditional and more contemporary luxury bathroom schemes.
The all-metal controls also place greater emphasis on the chosen finish. Whether specified in warm Brass or Bronze, cooler Nickel tones or more decorative Copper and Gold finishes, the absence of ceramic inserts creates a consistent metal treatment across the complete tap.
Designed for basins with two separate tap holes, the Tavistock provides individual hot and cold water controls. High-quality ceramic disc cartridges provide smooth, reliable operation, while 1/2" BSP connections ensure compatibility with many plumbing arrangements.
Before despatch, every pair of Rutland London taps undergoes thorough wet and dry testing at our Hampshire factory. This forms an important part of our quality-control process, with each set individually checked prior to leaving us.
The Tavistock's extended proportions work particularly well with traditional porcelain basins, natural marble vanity tops and painted bathroom furniture. Its balance of classical influence and cleaner metal detailing makes it a versatile specification for luxury residences, private villas, hotels and interior design projects throughout the UAE and wider Middle East.
The Tavistock Long Nose Metal Lever Basin Pillar Taps are available to purchase online in Polished (Unlacquered) Brass. As a living finish, Polished (Unlacquered) Brass will naturally age and develop a distinctive patina, with its appearance continuing to evolve according to use and the environment in which it is installed.
For individually specified bathroom schemes, the Tavistock is available across Rutland London's extensive portfolio of handcrafted Brass, Bronze, Nickel, Copper and Gold finishes, allowing basin taps to be coordinated with showers, wastes, traps, towel rails and other visible bathroom brassware.
