{"product_id":"tap3653-victorian-brushed-aged-brass-swan-neck-mixer-kitchen-tap","title":"TAP3653 Victorian Brushed Aged Brass Swan Neck Mixer Kitchen Tap","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe same tall Victorian swan neck as the chrome, in brushed aged brass — the finish that does most of the work in a period or country kitchen. Aged brass is warm and slightly uneven by design rather than bright and uniform, so it sits properly against a butler sink, timber worktops, or a painted dresser instead of looking like a modern tap in a gold coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo levers, set separately for hot and cold, on ceramic disc cartridges. 363mm to the top of the swan with a 194mm reach, a swivel spout, and a replaceable aerator. It fits a single tap hole, so it does not require the two holes a bridge tap needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis one works on low pressure.\u003c\/strong\u003e Rated from \u003cstrong\u003e0.3 bar\u003c\/strong\u003e and listed as suitable for low to high pressure systems, so it is a real option on a gravity-fed tank — unusual for a tap of this height.

Wipe with a soft damp cloth only — no abrasive creams, no bleach, no limescale remover. Howdens quote one year on the surface finish for this version, against two on the polished chrome, which is consistent with it being a brushed living finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting note:\u003c\/strong\u003e maximum sink or worktop thickness 40mm, 52mm footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Victorian\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e TAP3653\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aged Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brushed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swan Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual Lever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual Flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpout Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swivel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Turn Operation:\u003c\/strong\u003e ¼ Turn Lever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ceramic Disc Cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAerator Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Replaceable Aerator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Flow Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neoperl Honeycomb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e ½\" BSP Female Thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Suitability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suitable for Low to High Pressure Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Pressure Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3-5.5bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 363mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 230mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpout Reach:\u003c\/strong\u003e 194mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight (Without Packaging):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.609kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupplied With:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fixings, Instruction Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Surface Mounted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Sink and Worktop Thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Footprint:\u003c\/strong\u003e 52mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTail Pipe Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flexi Tails\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Hose Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFixings and an instruction manual are supplied.
