Kartell K-VIT Nero Round Bath Shower Mixer – Matt Black (TAP410NR)

The Kartell K-VIT Nero Round range is a clean, round, minimal collection of brassware in matt black — cylindrical bodies, slim stick levers, no ornamentation. This is the bath shower mixer: a deck-mounted bath tap with a built-in diverter and a shower handset on a flexible hose.

What it does

It fills the bath like a normal bath filler, and the diverter sends water to the handset instead — so you can shower over the bath, rinse hair, or clean the bath itself without a separate shower installation.

If you already have a separate shower and only need to fill the bath, the Nero Round bath filler costs less and looks tidier without the hose — which matters more on a black tap, where the hose is very visible.

Before you order

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

Suitable for low pressure systems. Being straight about what that means: on gravity-fed plumbing the tap works, but the handset will be a gentle spray rather than a powerful one. That's your water pressure, not the tap. If you want a proper shower over the bath on low pressure, you need a pump.

Living with matt black

Against a white bath the black frame reads as a deliberate design choice rather than something that blends in. The honest trade-off is that matt black shows limescale and water spotting far more than chrome — white marks stand out against a dark surface — and a bath shower mixer sits in the splash zone. A wipe dry after use keeps it sharp.

Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth only. Never use abrasive cleaners or limescale remover: matt black is a coating rather than plating, and harsh chemicals will dull or strip it.

The same design in three finishes

Nero Round is the matt black version of a design Kartell also make in polished chrome as the Kore range and brushed brass as Ottone. In black it pairs particularly well with a Krittal or Nero black-framed bath screen.
