Twyfords Venus | Cornflower Blue Close Coupled Toilet | Restored

Elevate your bathroom restoration with this genuine cornflower blue toilet. Part of the flagship Venus range by Twyfords Bathrooms, this suite was a high-end offering during the 1980s and 1990s. Cornflower Blue is a particularly charming and rare powder blue shade—lighter and more delicate than the more common Sky Blue—making it a highly sought-after colour for heritage interiors.

Product Features and Design

The Venus range was celebrated for its elegant, sculptural lines and superior build quality. This close-coupled model features a streamlined cistern that sits directly on the pan, offering a cohesive and sophisticated silhouette.

• Ready for Installation: This suite comes supplied with all necessary cistern internal fittings and a period-correct chrome side handle.

• Optional Add-ons: While a toilet seat is not included in the standard price, we can supply a matching or contrasting seat at an extra cost to complete your set.

Condition: Restored to Immaculate Standards

Although this is a reclaimed item, it has undergone a full professional restoration to bring it back to a “like new” state. It is in immaculate overall condition, having been thoroughly descaled, sanitised, and inspected for structural integrity. The vitreous china glaze retains its original factory lustre, ensuring your bathroom looks pristine from day one.
