Vanity, lights and mirror

The theme of this bath, as is with much of our home, is modern Asian.  We wanted to make the bath feel zen spa. We found the vanity at a local furniture store that sources antiques from all over the world.  The vanity is a Chinese apothecary that we repurposed.  The sink and faucet are typical modern units found anywhere that we re-used from the previous bath that came with the house.

The mirror is modeled after a Japanese Tor ii gateway.  We used the same teak that is used throughout the bath to make the frame for a mirror (with a traditional boring frame) that we already had.  The lights are from Ikea that we hacked by passing the wires inside aluminum tube to get the cool solid look.  The stone behind the sink is left over from the stone seat in a previous blog.

We had to cut some of the apothecary drawers down to make room for plumbing, but they still all are functional even if they are shorter.
