When designing a collection for our 25th anniversary, we went back to the source.
Water has been framing Riobel since 1995. For twenty-five years, we have inspired people by designing beautiful experiences with water. Now, with our latest bathroom collection, we sought to honor water and people’s emotional experiences in and around water by letting its beauty and power carry our design process into a new and uncharted direction while remaining true to our values of simplicity, state-of-the-art functionality and technical ingenuity.

Discover the story of water. Our story.

The REFLET Collection celebrates Riobel’s passion and commitment to innovation. The simple yet distinctive shape of the REFLET collection is intended to reflect the contrast of water. The design encapsulates a soft wavy surface embedded within a rigid frame, balancing the elegance of water and the power of water in one single collection. This duality is enhanced through the combination of brushed and polished surfaces that conjure the myriad textures created by water as it sculpts, polishes and erodes the materials around it. All pieces in the collection feature the undulating surface in a layout unique to the individual platform emphasizing the reflection while interacting with the product.

The result is a collection with contrasts that respond to light and streams of water, creating an effect that evokes emotion and is always unique and dynamic. While an all polished chrome version of the collection is available for an overall shining experience, four timeless options* are also available in the combination of brushed and polished finishes that epitomize the collection. All finishes come with matching accessories. REFLET is a unique collection that engages the senses, elicits reflection and elevates any bathroom design while representing the core of the brand and what it stands for.
