It is natural stone throughout, with no reconstructed sections and no surface coating, finished to a honed matte surface. The tub measures 32 inches wide, 72 inches long and 20 inches high, long enough for a full length soak. Along the rim, a tray is carved into the stone to hold a glass, a cup or a book during a long bath.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eMatte black with a carved tray\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eAlexandrette is a deep black marble with natural veining. The honed matte finish keeps the black soft and even, and it shows fewer water spots and fingerprints than a high gloss would. The integrated tray along the rim is the detail that sets this tub apart from the plain version: a flat ledge carved from the same block, wide enough for a glass of wine, morning coffee or a book. Because the tub and the tray are one piece, there are no joints or glue lines where water could find a way in. Each tub is carved from its own block, so the shade of black and the pattern of veining vary from piece to piece. Moderate variation between tubs is normal for this stone.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in tray\u003c\/strong\u003e A ledge on the rim, carved from the same block, for a glass, a cup or a book.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHoned matte finish\u003c\/strong\u003e A soft, even black that shows fewer water spots and fingerprints.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eA long, warm soak\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eAt 72 inches long and 32 inches wide, with a height of 20 inches, the tub allows full length soaking at a comfortable depth. Natural marble absorbs heat from the water and holds it, so the bath stays warm longer and needs less topping up, and the dense stone does not stay cold for long after the tub is full. As a freestanding piece it can sit in the middle of the bathroom or near a window, with the tray turned toward the side where it is easiest to reach. The tub has a 1.5 inch drain hole, and the walls range from 0.75 to 1.25 inches thick.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e 32\" W × 72\" L × 20\" H, with a carved rim tray.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrain\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5\" drain hole; faucet, overflow and mounting ring sold separately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eFloor, drain and filler\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eA solid marble tub is heavy, and the floor must carry it when it is full of water and in use, so a contractor should check the structure before delivery. The plumber sets the drain to meet the 1.5 inch opening and runs the supply for a floor mounted filler or a wall mounted faucet; the faucet, overflow and mounting ring are sold separately. The tub ships in a wooden crate. Professional installation is recommended for leveling, the drain connection and safe handling of the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we chose it\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid stone, no fillers\u003c\/strong\u003e Carved from one block, with no glue joints or reconstructed sections.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA tray carved in\u003c\/strong\u003e The rim ledge is part of the tub, not an add-on that can come loose.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan be refinished\u003c\/strong\u003e Honed marble ages gracefully and can be refinished by a stone professional if needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eMade to order\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eThis bathtub is carved to order, and it ships within 8 to 14 weeks.

Like all marble it is porous, so acid based products such as lemon or vinegar can etch it and harsh chemicals can dull the finish. Periodic resealing preserves the stone, and how often it is needed depends on how much the tub is used.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"stonetiledepot","offers":[{"title":"Honed \/ (W)32\" (L)72\" (H)20\" \/ Marble","offer_id":50674593693889,"sku":"NBTAB3272M","price":11854.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0873\/7875\/5777\/files\/Alexandrette-Black-Marble-Bathtub-with-Wine-Tray-Honed_Matte-_W_32_-_L_72_-_H_20-NBTAB3272M.jpg?v=1790877141","url":"https:\/\/homeraus.com\/products\/black-marble-freestanding-bathtub-with-wine-tray-matte-32x72","provider":"Homeraus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
