There is a need for an alternative mixer faucet that is more user friendly. The invention relates to handles for mixer faucets using cartridges, such as ceramic cartridges, and cartridge-based mixer faucets with such handles. There is provided a mixer faucet handle (100) for a mixer faucet (3) with a cartridge (1) having a stem (2), the mixer faucet handle (100) adapted to convert user handling into controlling rotation and tilt of said mixer cartridge stem (2) to control temperature and flowrate respectively of water poured from said mixer faucet (3), the mixer faucet handle (100) comprising:- a knob (160) with an outer surface for receiving rotational user handling,- a rotating mechanism (170) converting rotation of a first section of said knob (160) outer surface into rotation of said stem (2), and- a tilting mechanism (180) being a different mechanism from the rotating mechanism (170), said tilting mechanism (180) converting rotation of a different, second section of said knob (160) outer surface into tilting said stem (2).
