The Miami washbasin from Devon&Devon

by Simona Ganea, posted in Bathroom, on November 30th, 2011

Usually the furniture designed explicitly for the bathroom is simple and with no particular visual impact. That’s mostly because it was meant to be functional and the decorative aspect has been left aside. Still, it doesn’t hurt to choose something stylish and chic once in a while.

The Miami washbasin is a very distinctive piece of furniture. It was designed for Devon&Devon and it’s a very chic countertop washbasin unit with drawers. The unit needs to be mounted on the wall abut it also features two delicate legs for support. The shape and design of this particular piece of furniture are indeed unique. The washbasin unit has a very delicate and sensual silhouette, with sexy curves and a simple but very effective and eye-catching design.

Royal Naval Porthole Mirrored Medicine Cabinet

by Loredana Sava, posted in Bathroom, on November 28th, 2011

I know that all of you have seen the Titanic – the movie. It is impressive and beautiful and it gives us some idea about the way ships used to look one century ago. I liked the round and nice windows of the small passenger rooms that opened just a bit to let the fresh air in. I guess I am not the only one to love these porthole windows, as some people got inspired by them and designed different items from mirrors to medicine cabinets. This Royal Naval Porthole Mirrored Medicine Cabinet is a combination of both. It keeps the original design of a 19th-century ship’s porthole and brings a special marine air to the room.

The cabinet is hidden behind the mirror shape and appearance. But once you open it you will reveal the inside – the medicine cabinet contents. It is discreet and nice, having mirrored faces both inside and outside. The small shelves meant to store the medicine boxes are made of glass and enhance the reflection of every sun ray in the mirror. You can mount the cabinet on the wall and use it as a mirror above the bathroom sink. It is just the perfect height to suggest you a ship’s porthole. The item can be purchased for $495.

Dots Petal Bath Mat from Dwell Studio

by Loredana Sava, posted in Bathroom, on November 24th, 2011

I was raised to be a tough girl and to face all problems and hardships instead of running away from them. At the same time I was taught to never complain and to deal with bad weather and diseases without too many worries. That is why I do not wear any slippers in my home, even in winter. And i have no problem with that. But I do take care of my children because I don’t want to see them lying in bed with fever. So it was them I had in mind when I saw this nice Dots Petal Bath Mat from Dwell Studio.

It is perfect for the kids bathroom as it is pretty fluffy and keeps their tiny feet warm. Besides, it has a very nice design, appropriate for kids – Polka dots on a white background. The dots are pretty big in size and look great. The mat is double sided and made of cotton, so if there is some water splashing out of the sink, the mat will absorb it and it will not get on the floor , ready to cause accidents. Because the dots are coloured and they have a white background we recommend you to wash the mat with cold water. If you order it now you will have a special offer of just $39.20.

World’s most expensive bathtub sold in Dubai

by Simona Ganea, posted in Bathtub, on November 23rd, 2011

£ 1 million was the price for this bathtub. It’s called “Le Grand Queen” a name that I still can’t understand because the grammar seems to have taken a break in this case. Anyway, Le Grand Queen was sculpted out of an extremely rare stone that can only be found in the volcanic rocks from Indonesia.

Some people believe that this material has curative abilities and this has also been an important factor when determining the price of the bathtub. The piece has been sold at the International Jewellery Festival in Dubai. The Caijou bathtub is unique. It’s a very luxurious item, crafted from one of the most powerful healing stones in the world. I guess that’s impressive if you believe in these kinds of things.

Le Grand Queen was the only one of its kind so there will only one person who gets to feel its healing power. Anyway, the Chinese, Egyptian and Arabic antique civilizations believes this stone was very beautiful and indeed had curative powers. They also believe that the stone had stored inside over 100 million years of energy from the earth and from the universe. At least those civilizations didn’t know any better. But, after all, who knows, maybe there is some scientific explanation for all that. Let’s just hope the new owner won’t be disappointed.
