Tails’ Take: Classic Crossheads Meet a Tall, Graceful Swan-Neck Spout
The Kartell Times basin mixer balances familiar crosshead controls with a tall, smoothly curved swan-neck spout. Although the hot and cold water are adjusted separately, both controls sit neatly on one compact tap body, allowing the mixer to fit a standard single-tap-hole basin. Its generous 136mm outlet clearance leaves useful room beneath the spout for hand washing, while the polished chrome finish gives the rounded brass body a bright, clean appearance. Quarter-turn ceramic discs keep operation light and precise, adding modern convenience to the tap’s characterful design.
