Is it possible to combine elegance, durability and extravagance? If we are talking about stone bathtubs and sinks, then definitely yes. Their sales continue to grow year after year, and the delight of customers is even more intriguing and appealing.

Bathtubs and sinks made of stone. A pinch of luxury and more.

The excellent quality of the material means that more and more people are choosing to buy stone sinks and stone bathtubs. They install them not only in bathrooms. The sight of a stone bathtub on a terrace or in the garden is no longer something astonishing, but is becoming a fact. The comfort of lying down and the incredible joy of bathing make customers so accustomed to bathtubs made of granite and marble that they cannot imagine buying a product made of any other material again.

It may seem surprising to many that stone bathtubs and stone sinks are not cold. This is another advantage of the material from which they are made. Namely, the stone retains and maintains room temperature. Most often the temperature of the room is about 23 degrees and the same is the temperature of the bathtub. Thus, after pouring hot water into it, it will allow its user to enjoy a warm bath longer. It is even more interesting in the case of bathtubs exposed to the outdoors, since a bathtub heated on a sunny day is much warmer than the temperature of the evening air. The experience of such a bath during the day, after pouring very cold water, or in the evening after filling the tub with warmer water, is indescribable.

Producing river stone bathtubs is certainly a demanding job involving many teams. It all starts with finding the right boulder in an Indonesian river. The task is not easy, as the selected huge pebble is compressed with other stones. In addition, no one has any idea what the shape of the underwater rock is. With each boulder weighing more than 500 kg and the risk of not getting the shape you need after excavating the stone, it sometimes takes days spent searching for and extracting the right rock.
Just getting the material out of the water for the bathtub is the work of many people, a great deal of experience and skill in using simple equipment that can be used in a rushing river.
