Rossco Black Basins & Baths

Thirty three Rossco pieces carry black in the title, and the finish reaches further across the range than any single product type. It covers countertop basins, freestanding baths, pillar basins, wall-hung and under-counter bowls, butler sinks and basin mixers, so this page cuts across categories rather than sitting inside one. Prices run from R1,367 to R37,805, with the middle of the range near R7,608. The wider range sits on Rossco.

Matt, Gloss and Polished

Nineteen of the thirty three carry a recorded finish, splitting eight matt, seven polished and four gloss. Every matt piece is a basin, and the two baths with a finish recorded are both polished. One bath, the Cube at 1800x800x600mm, is described in its own title as a gloss inner with a matt black outer. Fourteen carry no finish value at all, so judge those from the photography or ask us to confirm before committing a room to one sheen.

Where the Black Runs Deepest

Countertop basins are the strongest block, with thirteen of the seventy seven in Rossco countertop basins finished black. Baths follow: seven of the twenty two freestanding baths, among them the Tania at 1590x780x470mm and the Mieke at 1610x710x525mm. After that the numbers thin quickly, to three of eight freestanding pillar basins, two of twenty one wall-mounted, two of nineteen under-counter and two of twenty five butler sinks.

Composite is the material behind most of it, recorded on nineteen pieces, alongside two ceramic and two copper. Ten carry no material value. The two-tone pieces are worth seeing in person: the Copper and Black Double Skin basins set a polished copper bowl inside a black outer shell, and a brass lined version is listed at 330x330mm. The Turino basin at 490x355x130mm is finished in black and white.

Taps and the Alternative

Three of the nine Rossco taps are black, two short basin mixers and one tall, and they sit with the rest in Rossco basin and shower taps. For the same weight without the colour, the thirteen concrete basins and baths carry comparable depth in a warmer grey. Sheen is hard to read on a screen, which is what the Kramerville showroom is for.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many Rossco products are available in black?

Thirty three, and they run right across the range rather than clustering in one category. Countertop basins are the deepest block at thirteen, followed by seven freestanding baths, three freestanding pillar basins, three basin mixers, two wall-mounted basins, two under-counter basins, two butler sinks and one mirror. Prices start at R1,367 and reach R37,805, with the middle of the range around R7,608.

Is the black matt or gloss?

Both are stocked, and roughly half the page does not say. Nineteen of the thirty three items record a finish, splitting eight matt, seven polished and four gloss. Every matt item is a basin. The remaining fourteen have no finish recorded against them, so the product photograph is the best guide. If you are matching two pieces across a room, ask us to confirm the pair before ordering.

Which Rossco baths come in black?

Seven of the twenty two freestanding baths. They include the Tania at 1590x780x470mm, the Naomi at 1595x738x520mm, the Mieke at 1610x710x525mm, the Aurora at 1680x790x530mm and the Cube at 1800x800x600mm, which pairs a gloss inner with a matt black outer. The Greco freestanding bath is also listed in black. Bath prices on this page run from R15,377 to R37,805.

Are there black Rossco taps to match the basins?

Three of the nine Rossco taps we list are black: two short basin mixers, one of them 230mm high, and one tall basin mixer. They are priced from R2,734 to R4,636. That is a narrow set, so if you need a wider spread of black tapware it is worth looking outside the Rossco range as well as inside it.

Do all 33 products on this page have a fully black finish?

No, and it is worth reading the titles. This page is built on the word black appearing in the product title, so a few pieces are only partly black. The Nungari bath at 1800x720x530mm is a white bath on black feet. The Turino basin at 490x355x130mm is black and white. The Copper and Black and Brass and Black double skin basins are black on the outside only. One item, the Beauty Mirror, is neither a basin nor a bath.
