VitrA Inset Coronet Basin in Champagne
Introduce an air of timeless sophistication to your vanity unit with this genuine champagne basin. Manufactured by the world-renowned VitrA, this Coronet model is finished in the quintessential “Champagne” glaze—a rich, warm cream that offers a much softer and more luxurious alternative to clinical white. Popularised in the 1990s, Champagne remains a staple for those maintaining a high-end heritage suite or designing a bespoke bathroom with a warm, inviting palette.
Condition: New Old Stock (NOS)
Finding an original VitrA basin from the 1990s in an unused state is a rare find for restorers and collectors:
-
Never Installed: This item is New Old Stock, meaning it has remained in its original storage since production and has never been plumbed or fitted.
-
Excellent Quality: The vitreous china is in flawless overall condition, with no chips or cracks. The glaze retains its factory-fresh high-gloss finish.
-
Hygienic Reliability: As an unused vintage item, it offers the authentic 90s aesthetic without the wear, scratches, or limescale buildup associated with reclaimed units.
Elegant Coronet Design
The Coronet range was lauded for its graceful, flowing lines and architectural presence:
-
Inset Vanity Configuration: This basin is designed to be dropped into a countertop or bespoke vanity furniture, creating a clean, integrated look that emphasises the basin’s elegant rim curvature.
-
1-Tap Hole Layout (1TH): Perfectly suited for a modern mono-mixer tap, combining vintage tonal warmth with modern hardware performance.
-
Compact Proportions: With a 45cm width, it is ideally sized for en-suites, guest cloakrooms, or double-vanity setups where space is a consideration.

Why Choose a Champagne Basin?
The champagne basin is the ideal solution for homeowners performing a “like-for-like” replacement of a damaged unit. Because Champagne is a discontinued colourway, this New Old Stock item by VitrA is the only way to ensure a 100% tonal match across your bathroom. It allows you to preserve the value and character of your original suite without the immense expense of a full modern renovation.
Safe and Secure Delivery
Shipping inset basins requires specialised, impact-resistant packaging to protect the critical mounting rim. We offer secure delivery at an extra cost to ensure your VitrA Coronet basin arrives in perfect condition. Alternatively, collection is available from our workshop.
