The Hinoki Cypress Bathtub reinterprets the comfort and astounding design of the classic Japanese “furo” – a short, steep-sided wooden bathtub. The modern version of the “furo” can turn into the most wonderful addition to a large bathroom. The round tub features a contemporary shape that enhances the use of a natural material and creates the opportunity of pure relaxation.
By using Cypress wood and skillful movements, the creator of this modern bathtub – Ryu Kosaka – managed to sculpt a fascinating and elegant bathtub. Created as a comfortable place to not only get clean, but also relax, the Hinoki Cypress Bathtub becomes indispensable to those who love taking long baths. The fine grain texture of the Cypress wood offers a natural, hard to mimic smoothness not easily forgotten. The material chosen for this bathtub was used to build temples and sanctuaries in the past and it displays many helpful properties like the soft fragrance or humidity-resistant properties.
