Natural Materials
Other than the vast benefit of a beautiful and natural looking bathroom there are other benefits of our natural stone collection.
Natural stone is extremely hard wearing and long lasting. With many cheap bathroom appliances and fittings, it really doesn't take long at all for cracks to start appearing, things to start falling off and that lovely white bath or sink to have developed a nasty yellow tinge. The materials that these products have been made out of are normally man made or altered from their original state.
Stone on the other hand has been around forever and is highly durable. Springwave natural stone bathroom products are properly sealed and utilise the highest quality materials to ensure you can admire and enjoy them for years to come.
Springwave incorporates high quality natural materials and contemporary design to achieve ageless elegance and beauty in our products that will serve well for many years.
History of Natural Stone in Bathrooms
A Roman Bath
Natural Stone has been used in 'bathrooms' since the first 'bathroom' was created. I say this loosely as we are talking more along the lines of a caveman using a chiselled out rock as a place to pool water rather than an actual room with fittings and appliances. Century old beings and tribes will have been using natural materials way before the use of clay and certainly long, long before we started making any bathroom furniture out of porcelain and plastics.
The early Roman and Greek bathrooms were normally constructed from limestone and other stone and then tiled. Sanitary ware made use of lead piping etc to enable filling and drainage.
Natural stone has forever been seen in bathrooms however; due to the advancements in technology we can now make other materials much more efficiently, cleanly and for less cost. Bathroom furniture and appliances are often factory made on a production line and simply cast from moulds, this is very efficient and normally has a low error rate, but can all be a bit to soulless and dull.
A Natural Stone Bath
Natural stone is a beautiful material that cannot be manipulated so easily and therefore is normally hand crafted and individually finished. This offers more character for your bathroom rather than making it look like every other wash room or a standard black and white hotel design.
Hopefully we will be seeing the use of natural materials in bathrooms for many years to come.
