Crosswater Bathroom Taps

Help! Please! I am so fed up of going round in circles on taps.

I like this style...

Basin taps:

Bath taps (I would have preferred wall mounted but a shower handset is a must):

And then matching, concealed shower valves.

Milano do something similar but a lot cheaper.

Does anyone have taps by either of these brands? I had hoped throwing money at Crosswater would equal a reliable tap but I've since been told they are made in China and not much quality.

Since we are wall mounting/concealing (sorry @pigletjohn) I am very conscious that we need decent taps to avoid a future tiling nightmare. But the brands recommended, Grohe, Roca, Vitra don't do anything in this style. (Grohe Essence is closest but shower valves let it down).

Any advice/experience?

We have Crosswater MPRO shower fittings and taps, concealed, in both bathrooms here. No issues so far (it’s been 1-2 years), but I wouldn’t say they have a premium feel. I won’t be putting them in our new house (but that’s partly because they are a bit too modern for our new house as well).
