A warm satin grey, brushed rather than polished, it sits between the brightness of chrome and the softness of a matt finish — closest in appearance to what most people call \u003cstrong\u003ebrushed nickel\u003c\/strong\u003e. It does not throw light back at you, and it does not show every fingerprint, which is the practical case for choosing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath the finish, this is a \u003cstrong\u003edual lever kitchen tap\u003c\/strong\u003e: hot on one side, cold on the other, both feeding a single tall swan neck through one tap hole. No second hole to drill, no hunting for the blend point on a single handle. The quarter-turn action has real weight to it, which is a large part of why the Astrid feels more expensive than it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a big tap. 375 mm to the top of the spout, 240 mm of clear height beneath the outlet and a 210 mm reach that covers a 1.5 or double bowl without leaning. If your sink sits under a window that opens inwards, measure to the sill first — this is the tap most likely to catch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater pressure is the thing that decides whether this tap suits you.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Astrid wants 1 bar as a minimum and is not built for gravity-fed water. A cylinder in the hot press instead of a combi boiler means it will dribble rather than run, and no amount of good intentions will fix that after fitting. Check first; there are better options below if you are on gravity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePewter finish\u003c\/strong\u003e — a warm brushed grey that hides fingerprints and water marks far better than polished chrome.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual lever quarter-turn control\u003c\/strong\u003e — independent hot and cold handles feeding one spout, through a single tap hole.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTall swan neck spout\u003c\/strong\u003e at 375 mm, with 240 mm of clearance for filling tall pots and jugs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e210 mm spout reach\u003c\/strong\u003e — proportioned for 1.5 and double bowl sinks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSwivel spout\u003c\/strong\u003e that turns aside when the worktop is in use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCeramic disc valves\u003c\/strong\u003e for a smooth, drip-free action with no washers to perish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow straightener\u003c\/strong\u003e giving a clean stream rather than a splashing one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact 58 mm base\u003c\/strong\u003e, deck mounted into a single tap hole.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1 bar minimum, high pressure only\u003c\/strong\u003e — not suitable for gravity-fed systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 year manufacturer guarantee\u003c\/strong\u003e, handled here in Ireland.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eELLSI (Etal)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel Name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAstrid\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePDT-000584\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKitchen Mixer Tap\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMount Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeck Mounted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eControl Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual Lever, Quarter Turn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTap Holes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePewter (brushed grey)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrass, Stainless Steel \u0026amp;

Polished chrome behaves like a mirror — every splash and fingerprint shows until it is wiped, and around a busy family sink that is most of the time. A brushed grey scatters light instead of reflecting it, so the same marks simply do not register. Anyone who has spent a year polishing a chrome tap understands the appeal immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also sits comfortably beside stainless steel. Sinks, hobs, extractors and appliance handles are overwhelmingly brushed stainless in Irish kitchens, and pewter reads as part of that family in a way bright chrome never quite does. If your kitchen already leans grey and matt, this is the finish that disappears into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trade-off is matching. Pewter will not pass for chrome next to chrome fittings — it reads as a deliberate grey, so it works best when it is not competing with polished silver an arm's length away.
