Kartell K-VIT Kolt Bath Filler Matt Black (TAP314KBL)

The Kartell K-VIT Kolt range pairs a squared-off body with softly rounded edges. This is the bath filler in matt black: a deck-mounted tap that sits on the rim of the bath and fills it, with no shower function.

Bath filler or bath shower mixer?

A bath filler (this one) just fills the bath. Choose it where you have a separate shower, or no shower over the bath at all. On a black tap the clean look matters more than usual — there's no hose trailing over the rim to break the line.

A bath shower mixer adds a diverter and a handset. If you need to shower over the bath, pick that instead.

Before you order

Bath fillers use 3/4" BSP connections — larger than the 1/2" on basin taps — so check your existing tails.

The waste is sold separately, and on a black bath tap you'll want a matching black bath waste and overflow rather than the chrome default. Kartell make one.

It needs only 0.2 bar, so it works on gravity-fed plumbing — though on low pressure any bath tap fills slowly. That's the system, not the tap.

Living with matt black

Matt black shows limescale and water spotting more than chrome, and a bath tap sits in the splash zone. Wipe it dry after use to keep it looking sharp. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth only — abrasives and limescale remover will dull the coating.

The same tap in four finishes

Kolt is made in matt black, polished chrome, brushed brass and brushed nickel, so the bath tap can match the basin mixer and shower valve across the room.
