Taking its cue from the world’s rapidly growing ‘love of vintage’, Kohler has introduced a range of bathroom tapware that references the form and ornamentation of the Edwardian period – and introduces new, deep, rich textures such as oil-rubbed and vibrant brushed bronze. Artifacts is a standout range of tapware that features detailed turnings and finials, elegant spouts and swing-lever handles in a choice of three finishes – oil-rubbed bronze, vibrant brushed bronze and polished chrome.

Each piece in the collection is distinct in terms of form and ornamentation but, while the aesthetics are vintage, the range’s performance is full of innovation. Basin taps are Five Star WELS rated, using less than six litres of water a minute; engineered ceramic discs resist deterioration and mineral build up; and the polished chrome, oil-rubbed bronze and vibrant brushed bronze finishes feature the Kohler patented corrosion and tarnish resistant surface.

The beauty of the Artifacts collection lies in its elegant and timeless styling. From casual to formal, Artifacts is at home in any décor — giving client the freedom to interpret the collection any way they wish. What’s more, the spouts, handles and finishes match with accessories and bathing and showering components across the collection, bringing the entire room together in one complete look.

The range comprises single and twin-handle basin sets, shower/bath mixers with and without diverter, two handle deck-mount bath set plus a wall mount bath spout - all in a choice of oil-rubbed bronze, vibrant brushed bronze and polished chrome.  The Artifacts collection by Kohler, in both oil-rubbed bronze and vibrant brushed bronze, plus polished chrome, is available from specialist bathroom suppliers nationwide. Polished chrome is a classic finish that coordinates beautifully with a wide variety of fixture styles and décors. It can evoke a nostalgic look, as in a vintage-style bathroom, and it also complements contemporary styles.

The Artifacts range combines quality craftsmanship with artisan designs to lend character and authenticity to your space - as a finishing touch or the central piece to build the room around.  Inspired by turn-of-the-century charm, each piece in the collection is like a vintage treasure rediscovered.
