Gerber Plumbing Fixtures LLC Steps Up with a New Abigail Faucet Collection

    WOODRIDGE, IL - February, 2007 - The new Abigail suite of faucets from Gerber Plumbing Fixtures builds on the company's long-standing reputation for quality with this upscale collection for the kitchen and bath. Well-suited for step-up remodeling or new construction projects, Abigail faucets are available for kitchens, bars, lavatories, tub/showers, Roman tubs and bidets.

    Abigail faucets coordinate to create a uniform look throughout the home and feature classic styling with a subtle contemporary influence. Soft, traditional styling is complemented by elegant curves that create a focal point in any room. A rounded base fades into facet-like ridges on the spout and handles to add a hint of modern flair to the otherwise classic styling.

    "The subtle design elements of the Abigail faucets create the perfect mix of classic and contemporary designs," said Kevin McJoynt, director of marketing, Gerber Plumbing Fixtures LLC. "This intriguing style often merits a closer look, and the heritage of Gerber quality is evident when you see and feel the sturdy construction," he concluded.

    Homeowners, designers and plumbing professionals will appreciate the quality craftsmanship of Gerber products including solid cast brass construction and reliable ceramic cartridges.

    Available in chrome, brushed nickel and oil rubbed bronze finishes, Abigail lavatory faucets feature solid cast brass construction and copper waterways and are available in centerset, mini-widespread and widespread options for maximum flexibility. Single- and two-handle kitchen faucets also feature solid cast brass construction and easy-to-install 1/2-inch threaded connections.
