Process, costs and the technical details that matter when historical forms meet Swiss building standards.

This large bath is a copy of a ceramic bath from the 1930's.
Made in England out of avery durable product called Vitrite™ (Stone, minerals, resin). It is much harder and heavier then Acryl which is mostly used for synthetic baths. The bath is 120 kg, this gives it an incredible stability.
Vitrite™ is a very "warm" material, it stores the heat well. Dirt can't stick to the dense surface. It should only be cleaned with warm soapy water and wiped dry.
A complete installation requires the bath, a waste with overflow set as well as the adapter set for Switzerland.
The waste and overflow must be siphoned separately in the floor. A service opening is required for this.
