Retro floor mounted bidet: guide to choosing the right model for your bathroom
A floor mounted bidet is a practical and elegant solution for furnishing a modern or traditional bathroom. Unlike wall-hung models, this type of vintage bidet sits directly on the ground, providing increased stability and simplified installation. Whether you are renovating a bathroom or designing a new space, this choice adapts to different styles, from classic to designer toilets, including retro or industrial models.
To discover a complete range of modern sanitaryware, Bleu Provence offers a variety of collections, combining aesthetics and functionality. Materials such as fireclay ceramic or vitreous china porcelain guarantee durability and ease of maintenance, while the available finishes allow you to customize the set according to your preferences.
The different types of bidets to put on
For small spaces, a small bidet can be ideal. These models optimize space while maintaining a neat aesthetic. Design lovers will appreciate the square, oval or rectangular shapes, which fit harmoniously into a contemporary bathroom.
Materials and finishes
Ceramics and porcelain dominate the countertop bidet market due to their strength and ease of maintenance. These materials come in several colors, from classic white and glossy black to more original shades such as red, blue or yellow. For an art deco or vintage style, special finishes for the taps can be considered.
How to choose your retro bidet to put
Adapting the style to your bathroom
The choice of a freestanding bidet depends above all on the desired atmosphere. For a classic bathroom, an antique bidet or a retro bidet will bring a touch of authenticity. Lovers of modernity will opt for a designer bidet with clean lines, while industrial spaces can be accommodated by an industrial-style bidet.
Shapes also play a key role. A round or oval bidet softens the corners, while a square or rectangular bidet enhances the contemporary look. For luxurious bathrooms, a matte black bidet can add a touch of chic and charm.
Installation and maintenance
The installation of a free-standing bidet requires a few precautions. Unlike a suspended bidet, this model rests on the floor, which makes it easier to install but requires checking the stability of the support.
Maintaining a ceramic or porcelain bidet is simple: regular cleaning with mild soapy products is enough to preserve its shine.
