Ideal Standard Whisper Apricot Low Level Toilet Pan

Complete your vintage bathroom restoration with this genuine whisper apricot toilet pan from the masters of British sanitaryware, Ideal Standard. Whisper Apricot was a signature shade within the exclusive “Whisper” range, characterised by its soft, pale amber tone. Often described as a warmer, more yellow-leaning alternative to traditional cream, this colour offers an understated elegance that instantly softens a room’s aesthetic.

Product Features & Installation Versatility

This low-level toilet pan is remarkably versatile. While originally designed for a standard low-level cistern, its configuration makes it equally suitable for use with a high-level cistern or even as part of a modern concealed cistern installation. Whether you are performing a like-for-like replacement of a damaged unit or incorporating a piece of 1980s history into a new retro-inspired build, this Ideal Standard pan provides the reliability and quality expected from the brand.

Restoration & Condition

Although this item is reclaimed, it has undergone a meticulous professional restoration process. It is presented in “like new” condition, with the vitreous china glaze having been cleaned and polished to its original high-gloss finish. We guarantee that there are no chips, cracks, or structural defects anywhere on the glaze, ensuring it is both sanitary and visually perfect for your home.

Technical Specifications

This pan is designed with a standard footprint, measuring 39cm in height, 36cm in width, and 47cm in depth. Its dimensions are consistent with classic Ideal Standard models, making it a straightforward replacement for most discontinued suites from the same era.

Why Choose Whisper Apricot?

The “Whisper” colours were designed to be timeless and subtle, making them easier to work with than the high-saturation tones of the 70s. Finding a pan in this specific shade is becoming increasingly difficult.

Safe & Secure Delivery

Shipping vintage ceramic pans requires expert care to prevent damage. We offer specialised delivery at an extra cost, using reinforced, shock-absorbent packaging to ensure your whisper apricot toilet pan arrives safely and ready for immediate plumbing.
