Japanese Artisinal Goods’s Bath Stool

Description from Mr Kitly

Traditional onsen-style bath stool hand crafted from Hinoki cypress in Japan. Whilst it is traditionally called a stool, it is actually a bath ‘seat’, used in bathrooms and onsen for seating yourself whilst washing before soaking in a clean hot water bath. In a Western context it is the perfect traditional bathroom accessory for a wet room seat or in the bathroom for storing and presenting linens or soaps beside the bath.

For obvious safety reasons, not for standing on in a wet tiled area! (See below warning).

Japanese Hinoki cypress is prized for its bacteria-resistant resin that prevents mildew and withstands humidity. This wood is highly rot resistant and its natural lemon scent is used in aromatherapy to reduce stress. Hinoki cypress is a responsibly harvested by-product of forest thinning, which is required to maintain healthy growth.
