Rimini – Brushed Grey Bath Mixer Tap

The shade leans towards anthracite, with brushed streaks running across the entire surface. No mirror chrome, no deep black either, just a matte metallic grey that captures light without reflecting it. This brushed grey bath mixer consists of three parts: a round built-in plate with two controls, a curved wall-mounted spout, and a cylindrical hand shower on a dark hose.

The slender handle on the left controls the flow, while the upper button switches between the spout and the hand shower. The controls emerge from the same plane, with no visible screws. The spout extends less than 130 mm, the hand shower stands vertically on its brushed brass holder, and the textured hose matches the same shade without visual interruption.

On a light wall, the set stands out without being obtrusive. On dark grey tiles or polished concrete, it blends almost completely, in continuity with the wall. Brushed grey does not impose itself like matte black or gold; it integrates, it dresses up the controls without highlighting them.

Five finishes available: brushed gold, brushed rose gold, brushed grey, polished chrome, and matte black. Brushed grey occupies a special position, halfway between the neutrality of chrome and the presence of black. It evokes the satin stainless steel of professional kitchens, brushed titanium, and graphite coatings. It's the finish that demands the least compromise with its surroundings.

Brushed gold adds a warm note, brushed rose gold a softer rosy nuance. Polished chrome remains the brilliant neutral that disappears everywhere. Matte black provides graphic contrast. The 45 cm format is for wider bathtubs, where the spout must extend significantly beyond the rim. The choice of length depends on the bathtub's geometry, not on current taste.

To maintain consistency throughout the room, this model is often paired with a brushed grey faucet or a matching brushed grey shower column.

The brushed grey bath mixer holds up well over time. The brushing masks the micro-scratches that polished chrome reveals daily. The ceramic cartridge stabilizes temperatures, and the dual control separates the water inlet command from the spout/shower selection. Limescale traces are less noticeable than on chrome or black, as the grain of the finish partially absorbs them.

It works well in rooms that prioritize material sobriety: large-format tiles, grey veined marble, polished concrete, dark wood. It also harmonizes with light ambiances without creating a stark contrast like black would. Where gold creates a warm focal point and black a graphic accent, brushed grey works in the background, discreetly.

What this brushed grey bath mixer brings is its refined neutrality: the shade doesn't fix the room in a dated style, doesn't demand a specific environment, and doesn't create contrast that ages. Three grey circles on the wall, a horizontal line for the spout. The metal disappears, the water remains.
