More PVC & Timber Alternative from Artisan
If you are looking to combine the timeless elegance of traditional timber with the high-performance benefits of modern uPVC, Artisans Rose Collection is the industry benchmark. Whether you live in a sensitive conservation area or a contemporary new build, there is a "Rose" designed to fit your home’s character and your budget.
Here is a breakdown of the three distinct styles in the collection and what sets them apart.
The Pinnacle of Authenticity The Ultimate Rose is widely regarded as the most authentic uPVC sash window on the market. It was designed specifically to pass the stringent requirements of conservation officers, making it nearly indistinguishable from original timber.
Key Feature: True Mechanical Joints. Unlike standard uPVC windows with diagonal welds, the Ultimate Rose uses butt-jointed corners that replicate traditional joinery.
Sightlines: It features an industry-leading 35mm ultra-slim meeting rail, providing the most elegant proportions available.
Detials: Includes a deep bottom rail, authentic putty-line glazing bars, and seamless "run-through" sash horns as standard
Best For: Heritage projects, listed buildings, and homeowners who refuse to compromise on period accuracy.
2. The Heritage Rose
The Versatile All-Rounder The Heritage Rose offers a perfect balance between classic aesthetics and modern manufacturing. While it shares many of the premium features of the Ultimate Rose, it is built with a slightly different construction method to offer a mid-range price point.
Sightlines: A slim 44mm meeting rail maintains a traditional look without the premium cost of the Ultimate model.
Details: It features woodgrain finishes and optional run-through horns, but typically utilizes high-quality welded joints (though these can often be "seamless" or "timber-look" depending on the specific configuration).
Best For: Period properties outside of strict conservation areas that still require a high-end timber look.
Modern Performance, Classic Style The Charisma Rose is the entry-level model of the collection. It is a competitively priced solution that brings the "sash window look" to modern homes without the maintenance headaches of wood.
Sightlines: A standard 60mm meeting rail, which is robust and provides a more substantial, modern feel.
Details: Features clip-on sash horns (optional) and modern hardware. It includes the same "A" rated energy efficiency and tilt-to-clean functionality as the rest of the range.
Best For: New builds, modern suburban homes, and budget-conscious renovations looking to add character.
No matter which model you choose, every window in the Rose Collection is 'A' rated for energy efficiency, offers high-level security (PAS24 and Secured by Design upgrades available), and features a clever tilt-in mechanism that allows you to clean the outside glass from safely inside your room.
