Bazaar: Bathing Beauty

DISTINCTIVE CHARACTER  Handcrafted using traditional sandcasting methods, Stone Forest’s Bronze Lunette vessel makes a striking addition to any bathroom. The production process can lead to small anomalies that are the distinctive traits of each sink. Available in golden- and weathered-bronze finishes that will develop a patina over time. stoneforest.com

OLDE ENGLAND  Signature Hardware brings a touch of Victorian England to its Freestanding Telephone Tub Faucet, in brightly polished brass. The faucet set comes complete with a lift-and-turn drain  and metal cross handles that cradle the hand shower on its flexible 60-inch hose. signaturehardware.com

INTO THE GROOVE  The grooves on the WAVE collection of cabinet hardware by Du Verre Hardware evoke the action of waves. The hand-finished, recycled-aluminum knobs and pulls come in satin nickel, antique brass and oil-rubbed bronze. Available at Push Pull Decorative Hardware in North Bethesda. pushpullhardware.com

CLASSIC STYLE  Elements of classic European architecture inspired Marble Systems’ Urban Layer Collection of stone and porcelain tiles. The line showcases parquetry, latticework, trellises, framework, geometric weaves and blocks. Patterns come in soft, neutral hues; the customizable collection is suitable for all interior applications. marblesystems.com

ON THE WALL  Designed by Ramón Esteve for L’Antic Colonial, the Faces collection of ceramic wall tiles is characterized by modern, geometric motifs on multi-dimensional or flat surfaces. Available at Porcelanosa in black and white, or metallic gold and silver. porcelanosa-usa.com

SUSTAINABLE SOAKER  Designed by Patrick Messier, the minimalist, sculptural BBE 02 tub from WETSTYLE’s Be Collection is made of eco-friendly soy and vegetable extracts and mineral stone instead of chemical-based resins. Available in matte and high-gloss finishes with an attached shelf that comes in oak or walnut. wetstyle.ca

ON THE SURFACE  To create Dekton, a surface by Cosentino, inorganic elements found in glass, porcelain and quartz are heat-compressed to accelerate the changes that occur in natural stone over time. Now, Cosentino introduces a new Dekton palette that includes Aura, a strong-veined, marble-like surface. cosentino.com

INDUSTRIAL EDGE  The Gridscape2 Soft-Close shower door by Coastal Shower Doors conveys an industrial edge with clear, glass panels framed in anodized aluminum that can be finished in black bronze or chrome. Each door comes in a hinged, sliding or folding version. coastalshowerdoors.com

SLEEK SYSTEM  Fiandre—maker of eco-friendly porcelain surfaces resembling stone, wood, concrete and more—has launched Aqua Maximum, a system of sleek, customizable sinks and shower trays. Shown here, the marble-like Double Integrated Washbasin Up&Down creates a clean-lined, uncluttered look. granitifiandre.com

NO PRESSURE  Form meets function in Geberit’s streamlined Sigma70 flush plate. With its smooth surface, the plate is mounted to a rocker switch that maintains dual-flush capabilities without buttons. Hydraulic-assist activation means it responds to the lightest pressure. The model comes in easy-to-clean stainless steel and colored glass. geberitnorthamerica.com

SHOWER TIME  Plan the perfect shower with Kohler’s customizable Choreograph Shower Wall and Accessory Collection. Walls and panels are made of Serica, a durable composite material, and come in a choice of colors, patterns and textures (shown in Sandbar and VeinCut Sandbar). Glass and integrated shelves and hooks keep clutter contained. us.kohler.com

BOLD AS BRASS  The solid-brass heated towel rail by British manufacturer Drummonds conveys old-fashioned luxury. Traditionally styled, it can be heated by water, electricity or both. Available in multiple sizes and finishes and in freestanding, wall-mounted and floor-mounted versions. Sold through the company’s New York City showroom. drummonds-uk.com
