Brass Finish Handheld Shower Set 23cm

A traditional handheld shower head that suits a period bathroom far better than the moulded plastic units most showers arrive with. The handle is turned metal with a gently swelling profile, and the round face measures 8cm across, wide enough to give a soft, even spread without the harsh needling of a small jet head. It arrives with a 150cm stainless steel hose, so it reaches comfortably around a bath for rinsing hair, washing a dog or cleaning the tub itself.

Five finishes are offered: gold, rose gold, black, antique black and a warm yellow-brown. Each is applied over a metal body, so the weight in the hand is reassuring rather than tinny, and the surface resists the water spotting and tarnishing that dulls cheaper plated fittings. The swivel joint at the hose connection lets the head pivot freely, which matters when the shower is shared between people of different heights or when a fixed riser sits awkwardly.

Overall length is 23cm and the connection is a standard 1in thread, so it replaces an existing handset without plumbing changes in most British bathrooms. The spray plate lifts away for descaling, which is worth doing every few months in a hard water area to keep the holes clear. Supplied as the handset and hose; a riser rail or wall bracket is not included unless your chosen option states otherwise.
