Black Concealed Shower System

The recessed control plate carries three small buttons in a row at the top and a round dial beneath. Each button opens an outlet: the overhead shower head, the hand shower, or the spout lower on the wall. The dial sets the temperature by hand.

This split avoids the diverter handle you have to turn without knowing where it stops: you press, and the water comes out in the right place.

The plate stays thin and flat, set at mid-height between the spout and the hand shower. The three buttons can be found without glasses, even with steam on the plate or soap in your eyes.

What sets this model apart is the blade spout at the bottom of the wall. Water comes out in a wide sheet, like a small waterfall: it fills a bath or a bucket without splashing, and goes well with a built-in bath.

Above, the square stud shower head is carried by a straight wall arm, and the rectangular hand shower is stored on an elbow that also serves as the water outlet. Its black hose lets you rinse seated in the bath.

One of the photos shows the set in anthracite grey; the option offered is black.

Here, nothing is exposed except the visible parts: the control body, and the supplies for the arm, the elbow and the spout all run inside the partition. Installation is therefore done during building work, before tiling, with a plumber who places each outlet at the right height.

In return, the wall stays smooth and is cleaned with a squeegee. On the shower head, rub the studs with your finger from time to time to loosen limescale; matt black is wiped without abrasive product. Also think about the spout height: it must project beyond the edge of the bath.
