Mixer tap or two-handle mixer tap? Single-lever or two-handle taps? When it comes to taps, the choice may not be easy, as there are many different products on the market. However, the wide variety of taps always allows you to find the perfect tap for every style of bathroom. How to navigate what the market offers? In this article, we look at the features a mixer tap for a retro-style bathroom should always have.
Two-handle mixer taps for a bathroom of yesteryear.
If you want to furnish a bathroom in such a way that it exudes an atmosphere of times gone by, choosing a two-handle mixer tap is certainly the best choice. This is the classic tap with two different knobs to control hot and cold water.
In the past, it was certainly one of the most commonly used taps, and although the single-lever mixer tap has 'stolen' the scene a little, this type of tap is still very popular with those who want to furnish a bathroom with retro charm.
Also, thanks to the new and more modern shapes and designs, the two-handle taps fit very well in elegant bathrooms with a classic, retro or revised style in a modern key.
Two-handle taps, a vintage detail.
Two-handle taps are the perfect choice if you want to create an old-fashioned atmosphere in the bathroom. The two knobs give you two different controls to mix hot and cold water and regulate the flow. These taps are available for both the bidet and the washbasin and are prepared for a monobloc or three-hole installation.
In the first case, these are basin or bidet taps consisting of a single spout and two controls (hot and cold water) for a single-point installation that allows you to regulate the flow and thus use less water. The design of this type of tap also fits perfectly with the vintage style, thanks to the cross handles whose shape is reminiscent of the typical handles of the past.
