As this item is handmade, the item you will receive might have some minor color and pattern differences Why a wooden tub? Nothing compares to soaking in a wooden tub. Wood is a natural material, it is a good heat insulator and it feels great to soak and sit on wood while in water How do you prevent leak? Making a wooden tub starts with a careful selection of the best available wood, which needs expertise. This is one thing that we give a lot of importance. We combine traditional Japanese methods with modern ones. Your tub will not leak, of course. We take all the necessary precautions and treat the wood with linseed oil and lavender oil. What are the advantages of Iroko wood? It is advised to use a wooden bathtub regularly to prevent drying and cracking, but we know that might not be possible for an average user in daily life. This is where iroko wood makes the difference. It is resistant to shrinking and cracking due to drying. (cedar and mahogany alternatives also have the same properties) Do you offer other wood alternatives? Yes, we do. We also offer endemic Turkish cedar wood and mahogany sipo alternatives. The advantage of the cedar comes from its beautiful smell and the mahogany has a dark deeper color. You can see the comparison of the colors from the 9th photo shown here. The wood is a natural heat insulator. The water will stay hot for a much longer time when compared to other alternatives. How about maintenance? For maintenance, other than regular cleaning, oil treatment can be done every 6 months or when you think that it needs to. It is a very simple process and can be done easily by you. This oil treatment is not a thing that you will need to do forever. 1-2 years later, after a couple of oil treatments, your tub will reach to a balance(especially if you are putting essential oils in your bath water) and may not need oiling again.
