Limestone Gallery Launches its easy-to install Trio Bathtub at Decorex 2011

…and takes the heaviness out of fitting a luxury, statement bath.

The problem with statement baths is that they are large and extremely heavy which makes them virtually impossible to carry upstairs and can require all manner of expensive lifting equipment.

Now the Limestone Gallery, pioneers in the supply and installation of stone baths, has come up with a brilliant solution – the Trio Bathtub.  A unique concept in stone bath tub design, it comes in 3 separate sections thus it is much lighter to carry and far more manoeuvrable. Once in place the pieces are securely joined using silicone.

Price: £14,500 exc VAT (£17,400 inc VAT)

Also available in a selection of other marbles and limestones.
