FOR SALE –

It’s hard to believe that this lovely little pair of polished brass basin taps are 89 years old!
How many modern taps, do we think will still be viable that far into the future?

In our refurbishment of them, all the internal washers and seals have been changed.
The seats have been re-ground.

The interesting porcelain indices show HOT & MAIN.
That’s mains pressure and not water from the tank in the loft.
The compact spouts measure 65mm from centre to centre.

On the body-stamps, you can clearly see 1937 as the date of manufacture.
Inside the MAIN tap, the internal gallery tube is “choked down” to limit the flow of water.
(Clear to see in the Gallery pictures).

In fact the only thing that means that these taps are not in a museum,
is the fact the the nut-case that removed them from the old basin used an angle grinder!
But we have pressure checked them and they are still water-tight.

Has anyone worked out what the EWW stamp is for???

Priced at only £235
