The Bath Collection

Bath FAQ

What materials are used in your bath collection?

Our bath collection focuses on natural materials that support bathing rituals and perform well in everyday use. You’ll find organic cotton towels, linen shower curtains, ceramic soap dishes, handwoven baskets, and bath accessories selected for their durability and craftsmanship.

How do I create a spa-like bathroom at home?

We look to the bathing traditions of Japan and Scandinavia for inspiring spa experiences. Layering natural materials is core to these cultures and is a simple place to start. Large, organic cotton towels, a woven bath mat, handmade soap, candles, and ceramic accessories can help create a bathroom that feels calm and free of unnecessary clutter.

What is the difference between bath sheets and bath towels?

Bath sheets are simply larger than bath towels, giving you extra coverage and comfort. If you prefer a generous wrap after your bath or shower, a bath sheet is the way to go.

Can bath sheets be used as beach or pool towels?

Yes, bath sheets are generously sized and can absolutely be used at the beach, pool, spa, or wherever you need a little extra coverage. Their soft, absorbent feel makes them a comfortable option for drying off after a swim.

Why use organic and natural materials in the bath?

We use organic materials for their longevity and softness over time. With proper care, the fibers of organic cotton towels become softer after continued use while maintaining their ability to dry quickly. 

Where do you source your towels from?

Our bath textile collection is sourced from renowned textile-producing regions in Portugal, Italy, and India, each with its own long-standing expertise in quality, craftsmanship, and textile production. Many of the mills and manufacturers we work with offer OEKO-TEX® certified textiles, providing an added level of assurance that the products have been tested for harmful substances.

What are the factors to consider when lighting a bathroom?

The main consideration is a light’s performance in moisture. There are three factors: how close the fixture is to a water source, whether it can be exposed to direct spray, and how well the room is ventilated.

• Outside the immediate tub or shower area: A damp-rated fixture is generally appropriate for locations that experience normal bathroom humidity but aren't subject to direct water or spray. Good ventilation is especially important in bathrooms with frequent steam or limited airflow.
• Near a sink or vanity: Consider how close the fixture is to the faucet and whether water can realistically splash onto it. A fixture mounted above or beside a vanity is typically exposed to humidity and occasional splashes rather than continuous water, but the specific fixture rating and installation requirements should always be followed.
• In or immediately around a shower or tub: This is the area where the distinction matters most. Fixtures within the tub or shower area need to be appropriately rated for the conditions they will experience. Where a fixture can be exposed to direct shower spray, it should be listed for wet locations. Electrical codes also define specific zones around tubs and showers, including the area directly above them, so certain fixture types and mounting locations may not be permitted there. 

When in doubt, choose the rating appropriate to the worst conditions the fixture may encounter, rather than the average conditions in the room. A well-ventilated bathroom will generally have less persistent moisture than a poorly ventilated one, but ventilation doesn't make a fixture suitable for direct water exposure.

Always check the fixture's specifications and installation instructions before installing it in a bathroom. Local electrical codes can vary, and the fixture must be listed for the specific location where it will be installed.
