Fixtures · Drummonds

The serious-home cast-iron roll-top — hand-poured, hand-enamelled, and genuinely generational, if you can pay five figures and carry half a ton of bath and water.

Hardware · Armac Martin

Armac Martin Cotswold Cup Pull

A solid brass forged cup pull, hand-finished in Birmingham in about twenty finishes, at under $110 a pull landed; the most sensible serious answer for a Shaker kitchen's drawers, as long as you want a cup pull's finger grip and not a bar.

Furniture · Vitsœ

$$$$ (trade / showroom) · GACHOT (Gachot Studios)

Finishes · Farrow & Ball

Farrow & Ball Estate Emulsion

The chalky, 2%-sheen finish that made Farrow & Ball famous still looks better than almost anything on a quiet wall, but it marks, can't be scrubbed, and touches up badly. Use it where nobody touches the walls, and specify Dead Flat everywhere else.

Observed 2026-10-20 on farrow-ball.com/us: $160 per US gallon, $9 per 100 ml sample pot. Primer is extra. US stockists observed at $120–$160 per gallon.

Fixtures · TOTO

TOTO NEOREST NX2 Dual-Flush Toilet

The best-looking integrated toilet you can buy, with every TOTO hygiene system built in, but at $26,279 list for one fixture with a three-year residential warranty, it is a solid pick for owners who want the flagship, not the default, since the near-identical NX1 skips only the UV clean light.

MSRP $26,279 (model MS903CUMFX#01, Cotton White, as listed by multiple authorized dealers on 2026-10-07; TOTO's own page shows no number and marks it Limited Inventory).

Furniture · Knoll

Knoll Bertoia Barstool

Bertoia's 1952 wire barstool is still the most beautiful thing you can put at a kitchen island, but at roughly $2,000 to $3,000 a seat, bought three or four at a time, and needing a pad to sit on for long, it's a solid pick rather than an automatic one.

Observed 2026-10-06 on Knoll's US shop: $2,046 per stool bare (counter or bar height, chrome, black, or white); $2,382–$3,089 with seat pad; $3,093–$3,115 bar height with full leather cover. A sitewide promo code was showing; confirm live price per stool · Harry Bertoia
