ROHL INSPIRES LUXURY IN THE BATH WITH THE JÖRGER COLLECTION


I
rvine, CA – Roaring fireplaces, sparkling crystal chandeliers and espresso machines are moving from the living room and kitchen to the bath. Affluent homeowners are transforming their bathrooms into luxurious, private sanctuaries using only the finest, most exclusive products.
In these elite spaces, cashmere towels hang from polished silver hooks, glass bottles of Clive Christian’s 1872 Perfume sit on marble countertops, and velvet Bottega Veneta slippers rest next to the gilded feet of a cast iron clawfoot tub. Rooms with such distinction deserve special products. ROHL’s exclusive Jörger Collection brings the opulence of a European palace into your home.
The namesake of the ROHL Jörger Collection, Bernhard Jörger, acted as master plumber to the court of the Grand Duke Friedrich II of Baden during the early 20th century. His eye for fine design and high quality craftwork landed him the job of maintaining the baths of the most luxurious castles and palaces in the region. An especially lavish palace, the Schloss Mannheim, a large, Baroque-style palace, housed the Grand Duke himself.
In 1965 the grandson of Bernhard, engineer Gerhard Jörger co-founded what is now Jörger – a company dedicated to providing handcrafted, luxury fixtures for the most special of places. Each piece is crafted using high grade, special alloy brass. Exclusive design, detailed finishing and technical perfection are hallmarks of this line.
The Aphrodite Collection
Inspired by Ancient Greece, the Aphrodite Collection features elegantly crafted fixtures, faucets and accessories that highlight the most classic design – the Ionic Column, which represents strength and dignity.
The spout and handles of the Aphrodite C-spout 3-hole widespread lavatory faucet (607.30.300-2) are indicative of the columns found in the Coliseum in Rome, as well as the Erechtheion in Athens. The shape and detail on the Wall Mounted Soap Dish Holder (607.00.007) is reminiscent of the semi-circle sculptural decorative elements found on Greek temples.
In the Jörger Special Order Collection, the Aphrodite is enveloped in a beautiful gold plating with an additional process applied with silver ingredients that allow the product to turn completely bluish. The fixture is hand polished for superior sparkle that is sure to become the centerpiece of your bath.
The Empire II Collection
Much like a sleek European sports car, the Empire II Collection celebrates the elegance of simple, fluid design. Emphasis on geometric shapes gives this collection a modern edge. The Single Lever Single Hole Lavatory Faucet (628.10.833-2) is the definition of minimalist design, featuring only basic elements with limited flourish.
The 3-Hole Deck Mount Tub Filler (628.30.110) creates a pure, calming presence in the bath. The lack of ornamentation offers a visual expression of serenity, thus mentally preparing you for relaxation before even dipping a toe in the bath water.
Crystal handles add a dose of glamour to the Empire Royal 3-Hole Lavatory Faucet (600.30.300) in the Jörger Special Order Collection. The crystal prism handles compliment the sleekness of the curved faucet for a look that is as contemporary as it is chic.
ROHL is honored to bring the richness of European luxury to the States through the Jörger Collection.

    SOLIMAR’s bold, rectangular spout towers authoritatively over thematically coordinated, widespread handles. Unique, convex escutcheons of generous proportion provide a more aesthetically pleasing platform for handles and spout by bringing geometric contrast to the design. The combination of curves and minimalist straight lines make for an eclectically unifying effect that is subtle to the eye yet sets SOLIMAR apart from other designs in its category.

    SOLIMAR lists for $719 in Polished Chrome, $971 in Special Finishes, and $1150 in Premium PVD finishes.
