Unlacquered Antique Brass Bathroom Mixer Tap | Handmade 3-Hole Basin Taps
This widespread basin tap is born from the metalworking traditions of Moroccan ateliers, where brass is shaped by hand and embellished using centuries-old inlay techniques. Each fixture begins as solid unlacquered brass—cast, machined, and finished without the synthetic coatings that obscure the metal’s natural beauty.
-The handles tell their own story. Fragments of bone and resin are individually set into the brass bodies by artisans who have inherited this decorative craft through generations. The resulting patterns carry the geometric precision of North African ornamental art, rendered in materials that age alongside the metal itself.
-Unlike factory-sealed fixtures frozen in perpetual newness, this tap is designed to mature. The exposed brass surface responds to water, air, and touch, darkening gradually from polished gold into deep amber and bronze tones. This living patina transforms the fixture into something genuinely personal—a surface that records the passage of time rather than resisting it.
-No two examples share identical inlay patterns or patina development. The variations are not imperfections but signatures of handwork, ensuring your fixture remains unrepeatable.
Product Features :
- Solid Unlacquered Brass Throughout :Â Cast and machined from premium-grade brass with no plating, no composite fillers, no shortcuts. The substantial weight and density distinguish genuine brass construction from hollow alternatives.
- Hand-Set Bone & Resin Inlay Handles :Â Moroccan craftsmen individually position each bone and resin fragment, creating intricate geometric compositions rooted in traditional decorative arts. Natural material variations ensure every handle pair is visually distinct.
- Ceramic Disc Valve Mechanism :Â Engineered for decades of drip-free performance, the precision ceramic cartridge delivers smooth quarter-turn operation while eliminating the maintenance cycle of older compression valves.
- Intentional Living Finish :Â The uncoated brass surface oxidizes naturally, developing warmth and depth that factory-sealed finishes cannot achieve. Early tonal shifts settle into a distinguished patina that deepens the material’s character over years of use.
- Water-Conserving Aerator :Â Flow restriction maintains consistent pressure at 1.2 gallons per minute, meeting modern efficiency standards while preserving user experience. Reduced consumption without compromised performance.
- Swiveling Gooseneck Spout :Â 360-degree rotation provides functional flexibility for widespread basin configurations, combining practical utility with the visual grace of traditional gooseneck architecture.

Why Choose us ?
- Direct from the Workshop:Â Unlike big-box retailers, we are the makers. By cutting out the middlemen, we ensure that the artisan who hammered your brass is fairly compensated and that you receive a master-quality piece at an honest price.
- 20 Years of Expertise:Â Our team consists of master coppersmiths who have spent two decades perfecting the "Beldia" (traditional) technique. This level of skill ensures that every valve, thread, and curve is engineered for a lifetime of use.
- Pure, Solid Brass: We never use "brass-colored" plastic or cheap zinc alloys. Our products are heavy, solid, unlacquered brass that will never peel or rust—they only get more beautiful with age.
- Small-Batch Quality: We don't mass-produce. Each faucet is part of a limited artisan run, meaning we spend hours inspecting the details of your specific order before it leaves our hands.
- 5-Year Structural Warranty: We take pride in our craftsmanship. Bondawood provides a 5-year warranty on the structural integrity of the brass and the mechanical components (including the ceramic disc cartridges). If your faucet experiences any mechanical failure under normal residential use, we will provide replacement parts or a full replacement free of charge.
