Real Japanese Hiba Wood Bath 'Isu' Stool & Hinoki Wood 'Oke' Basin Set - HAND-MADE OF NATURAL WOOD IN GIFU PREFECTURE...
This is a set: the stool has a special shelf for proper drying and storage of the basin. (Note: never dry them in direct sunlight!)
The perfect set for home spas!

• We have added some NEW PHOTOS with details so you can see their excellent quality and what they actually look like used in the home! Note that the label on the 'Oke' basin in some of the photos is just a paper label. It is shown wrapped in a protective plastic film that is removed for use. The stool is very large and comfortable to sit on!
• Made completely in the traditional way, this high quality set is made of the finest, fragrant Japanese wood. The 'Oke' basin is made of Hinoki Cypress Wood and the 'Isu' stool from water-resistant Hiba Wood.

• Stool: Hiba Wood - 35 X 20 X 30 (14" X 8" X 12" Tall) It is MUCH larger than the standard ones and is comfortable to sit on...
• Basin: Hinoki Wood - 22.5 X 11.5 ( 9" across X 4⅔" deep) with real copper bands.

In a traditional Japanese bath, the stool is used to sit on while washing outside the bath tub and the basin to pour water over yourself as you wash. These are hand-made for us in the picturesque Gifu Prefecture, which is famous for the production of natural wooden bath goods.

Hinoki and Hiba are water and rot resistant and give off the most wonderful fragrance when wet. The oils in the sap are said to be excellent for the skin. Traditionally, hinoki was used to make the bath tub itself but these are considered an extravagant luxury now as they are extremely expensive.

These solid wooden stools and hand-made basins are of the exact same type used at many fine Hot Spring 'Onsen' resorts all over Japan but are a much larger size. Beautifully made by expert craftsmen, they will last for many years. Perfect to bring the essence of the Japanese Bath into your home! Allow at least two weeks production time prior to shipping as we order them in batches. MADE IN JAPAN! NOTE: Shipping rates for these items go by weight only so it is not usually much cheaper in multiples or to combine.
• NOTE:  The last photo shows the other items available in this line...

NOTE: THEY WEIGH 5 KG FOR ONE SET AND CAN'T GO BY REGULAR AIRMAIL - EMS SHIPPING ONLY...
••• THE SHIPPING TO SOUTH AMERICA AND AFRICA WILL NOT CALCULATE CORRECTLY  WITH EBAYS SHIPPING CALCULATOR -
IT IS $178. FOR ONE SET AND $262 FOR TWO SETS - PLEASE BE SURE TO WIAT FOR AN INVOICE FROM US IF YOU LIVE IN THIS AREA OF THE WORLD!!!


IMPORTANT SHIPPING NOTE: Most items include TWO shipping rates:
1) EMS is the higher option and is fully insured, includes a tracking number and the transit time is much faster - delivery is within 7 days of shipping in most cases. We need your TELEPHONE NUMBER so they can contact you for delivery. The TRACKING NUMBER is in your FEEDBACK as of the day of shipping - please TRACK your item to be sure it is not returned to us. If you are not home, they usually leave an 'Attempted Delivery' note but will return it to us as 'unclaimed' if you do not contact them within about a week.

2) STANDARD AIRMAIL is the lower one is and is fine for most inexpensive items to countries with TRUSTWORTHY postal systems but as it does NOT include TRACKING, we have NO WAY of locating the item's whereabouts or of influencing the post office to deliver it once it leaves Japan. The usual delivery time is about 10 days to 2 weeks but it has been known to take up to 6 weeks - especially to Spain. Selecting this option means that you understand that it's safe, speedy delivery is at YOUR risk. We recommend EMS!

Some items are cheaper when shipped together - If you wish us to calculate the exact rate, just hit: REQUEST TOTAL and we will make the invoice for you. We ship in large batches and pick-up is arranged with the Post Office about twice a week. Your item goes in the first shipment after it is in stock, packed and ready to go. This is usually VERY FAST, however large, multiple item orders can take longer to prepare. If you have a DEADLINE, please contact us PRIOR TO PURCHASING the item to ask if it is possible. EMS Service is a POSTAL service - not a SELLER Service, meaning that it will speed up TRANSIT TIME but not necessarily the DEPARTURE DATE. ALL items are shipped when they are ready and as quickly as we can manage!
