Garden taps

"Our unique natural stone fountains should also be equipped with unique faucets": Thomas Gasser soon realized this and felt a strong need. Therefore, over 25 years ago, he set out to find a trained blacksmith who could help him craft faucets according to his specifications and to match each individual boulder fountain.

After more than a quarter of a century, the Gasser Naturstein team has amassed extensive knowledge and the craftsmanship to create perfectly crafted outdoor faucets.

Our selection of over 200 different models, available in brass or stainless steel, can be tailored to almost any customer request and beautifully handcrafted in our workshop. Most of these diverse faucets are custom-made by hand to perfectly complement your chosen boulder fountain. Depending on your preference and what best integrates into your garden's overall aesthetic, we can manufacture the water inlets in either stainless steel or brass. You also have complete freedom in choosing the shut-off valve: we are happy to install a faucet with a cross-type shut-off valve, a lever-operated shut-off valve, or even a self-closing push button to provide you with your precious drinking water at the precise rate required. Various shapes and sizes are available (e.g., arched or square-milled watercourses). You can replace the faucet as needed, or we would be pleased to custom-make one to your exact specifications.

These faucets are suitable for fountains, sinks, stone columns, or simply as a basic water source for indoor and outdoor use. Installation is carried out professionally. A hole is drilled to the bottom of the fountain, a high-quality stainless steel pipe is inserted and secured against the fountain base – this serves as the water inlet. Alternatively, high-quality brackets, matching the inlet material, can be mounted to the wall or fountain wall. We also offer a concrete base system; the concrete base is buried in the ground to provide the faucet with secure support.

Our handcrafted stainless steel or brass faucets are incredibly versatile: whether for fountains, sinks, or even larger outdoor showers – they find their place in many locations and enhance any room or garden with their beautiful design.

Because every faucet is produced directly in our workshop, we can fulfill virtually any customer request, size, or design idea.

Our blacksmith crafts both our standard models to measure and custom orders. Customers can simply provide us with a sketch and ask us to bring their vision to life – we take on any challenge that is feasible, and our blacksmith sees it as a welcome one, crafting each piece to the highest quality standards.

To ensure you enjoy your faucet for many years, the brass faucet should be treated once a year with Buffalo Gloss Hard Wax. Before applying the buffalo wax, the faucet must first be completely free of dust and grease. Then, rub the wax in using a lint-free cloth in a circular motion. Allow the wax to set for 5 minutes. Once it has set, buff it out by hand with a clean cloth. The stainless steel faucet requires no maintenance.
