The Ofuro Bathtub is an elegant soaking tub with Japanese origins focused on providing a bather with a relaxing, harmonious experience every time they draw a bath. The tub is constructed entirely out of cedar wood that has been softly sanded by a carpenter for extended periods to achieve the smooth finish observed. A series of three stainless steel bands are clamped in place around the wood to give it additional support.
The Ofuro Bathtub will offer an aromatic experience when filled with water thanks to the essential oils with the wood that will escape and offer a harmonizing effect. Weighing in at 110-pounds, the tub is suitable for placement almost anywhere and is well-suited for indoor or outdoor bathroom environments.
