Royal Doulton Optima | Cameo Pink Horizontal Outlet Toilet

Complete your designer bathroom restoration with this genuine cameo pink toilet. Part of the renowned Optima range, this suite was produced by Royal Doulton / Allia and designed by Alan Tye, Doulton’s head designer of the time. The Optima range is celebrated for its clean, ergonomic lines and sophisticated palette, with Cameo Pink offering a soft, muted alternative to the brighter pinks of previous decades.

Product Features and Designer Heritage

This is a close-coupled set featuring a horizontal outlet (H.O), making it suitable for modern plumbing where the waste pipe exits through the wall. As an Alan Tye design, the Optima model balances architectural form with practical utility, making it a highly desirable piece for mid-century and retro enthusiasts alike.

The suite includes:

• Side inlet, side outlet cistern for traditional plumbing access.

• Internal fittings and a chrome handle included in the price.

• Compatibility with matching seats (please enquire for availability).

Condition and Quality

This set is a unique combination of reclaimed and vintage stock:

• The WC Pan: Reclaimed from a period property but fully restored to a “like new” condition. It has been professionally cleaned and inspected to ensure a flawless finish.

• The Cistern: New Old Stock (NOS), meaning it has never been installed or used and has remained in professional storage since its manufacture.

Why Choose Cameo Pink?

Cameo Pink was a signature Doulton shade, known for its elegant, dusty-rose undertones. Because this suite combines a meticulously restored pan with an unused cistern, you get the perfect balance of period-correct aesthetics and reliable, factory-fresh components. It is an ideal replacement for a damaged Optima unit or a standout feature in a new retro-inspired cloakroom.

Safe and Secure Delivery

Shipping heavy ceramic sanitaryware requires specialised expertise. We offer secure delivery at an extra cost, using reinforced, high-impact packaging to ensure your cameo pink toilet arrives safely and ready for immediate installation.
