Hello, At the moment they are very popular. I don't have one at home but whenever I have the chance to use it somewhere I actually enjoy it and find it practical. As minnie said the best is to find the right countertop against the water stain! Good luck with your Project! StJames Design Interiors

Definitely mixer. I have never seen the individual cold and hot "Victorian" taps before I moved to the UK. These are the pet hates of mine. The water comes either ice cold or boiling hot and you cannot wash hands or face unless you do it quickly before the hot tap becomes too hot. And no, I do not find the idea of a plug and wash particularly appealing. Some things should just go. A traditional looking mixer tap with the hot and cold taps is much more appealing and we will be installing those in our 30s house.

Hi @Kaila Yates and thanks :-) the frame I made was out of aluminium right angle, it could be made from steel angle as well, to totally simplify, you could just make a rectangle out of say, 30mm square wood, glue it to the rear of the mirror (have the back plastic wrapped for safety and so any mastic/doesn’t react with mirror back and then paint it the same colour of your wall, remember it’s only to float it off the wall, it will sit back about 30mm back from the edge of the mirror so can’t easily be seen! drill and wall plug 2 long screws into the wall (horizontally level) and leave them protruding about 25mm then hang your framed backed mirror on them, not a great pic but you can see my frame here, this can’t be seen from the front or side due it’s position, So a wooden frame would be very simple and effective, all you need is a glass supplier to cut and edge your mirror exactly as you want it then make your floating frame to suit :-) hth bespoke does not always have to cost a fortune, all in this cost me @£60 to make! That’s the finished product inc the mirror cut and edged!, the mirror is actually a brass/ rose gold, I love the final effect of the colour

I have bought this matt finish countertop stone basin, it is super easy to clean and anti scratch.
