Delta® introduces the new Talbott™ single-handle kitchen faucet at the 2007 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS).  Talbott’s curved, elongated spout and sleek, flowing lines create a casual look for the home, tapping into a modern approach to traditionalism.

“The casual look, also known as ‘sophisticated country’ uses simple lines and clean patterns to bring new interpretations to more traditional forms,” said Judd Lord, director of industrial design for Delta. “Talbott fits perfectly into this trend, creating a ‘shabby chic’ look and feel in the kitchen. It also blends well with distressed accents to create an artistic look for the room which appeals to a broader range of consumers.”

Talbott’s recessed aerator, which is completely hidden from view, creates an overall clean appearance. “Our research showed that consumers preferred this design, as the hidden aerator gives an even-keeled look and feel to Talbott’s styling.”

Talbott is available in one-hole installation, two-hole with side spray, three-hole without side spray or integrated deck with side spray, and four-hole with side spray, in both Chrome and Brilliance® Stainless. The last option is the only choice offered to consumers at retail while all five models will be distributed through the trade channel.

Talbott is a perfect choice for builders and consumers alike. “For builders it provides a step-up option from the popular Delta Signature™ Series,” says Lord. “For consumers, Talbott promises a well-made product crafted to fit in perfectly with today’s kitchen and bath trends for the home. Casual is a desired look because it can be mixed and matched with other trends and fashions.”
