Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:78019 | Colour: Brass |
| Type: Taps | Material: Brass |
| Features: Reclaimed, Restored | Original/Reproduction: Vintage Original |
A set of vintage kitchen sink taps in fully refurbished condition.
Gently buffed to yield a gleaming finish.
They stand at approximately 9 inches tall (from base that stands proud of worktop to handle top) and the distance between tap stand centre and end of spout is approximately 4.5 inches.
All our taps have had the following work completed:
- Old finish chemically removed by a licensed and environmentally responsible local firm- Tap seats have been re-machined to ob...viate the risk of slow drips, as is common on old taps
- New compressed fibre washers have been cut to size by hand using imperial wad punches on a fly press- Spindles are lathe turned to ensure they meet specific tolerances- Rubber washers are replaced- Gland nut packing is repacked in the traditional way using graphite string. This stops water leaking from below the handles- Polished, again by hand, using a polishing lathe.
Guaranteed not to leak!
See our other listings for more stunning English taps.
We operate a small machine shop and can complete custom machining and modifications. We can also get any tap plated in chrome, nickel or copper.
