Towel Trees and Modern Bath Fixtures Debut in Small Bathrooms
Modern bathroom fittings emphasize hygiene and wall integration. Towel trees of brass with three legs offer compact storage, while wall built tubs basins and showers reduce piping visibility. Side faucet outlets and center waste drains align with new sanitary design, making baths simpler to clean and maintain.
Porcelain and glass dominate early sanitary fittings

Porcelain dominates non glass items this year including stools and wall chests while china mugs soap dishes and toothbrush holders remain largely non porcelain. Brass or nickel fixtures require careful polishing and metal sponge holders come in wire forms above the tub.
