A mixing valve with a movable spherical valve element (14) with a guide mechanism which allows for rotation of the spherical valve element about its center along two different directions. The valve element (14) is provided with an opening (17) that cooperates together with inlet openings (10), (11), (12) and (13) for hot and cold water which are equipped with tubular seals (8) made from elastomeric material. The valve element (14) also has an outlet opening (16) for the mixed water located in a partially spherical seat in the fixed part of the faucet to control the proportion of the mixing between the hot and cold water and the flow of the mixed water. There are at least two openings (10, 11) for supplying the hot water equipped with tubular seals (8) and at least two openings (12, 13) for supplying cold water with tubular seals (8). At least four openings (10), (11), (12) and (13) for supplying water are approximately located approximately along a great circle and circumferentially spaced about the semi-spherical seat. The opening (17) in the spherical valve element is elongated so that at least two openings are always fully uncovered in the full open position.
