NATIVE TRAILS UNVEILS SANTORINI – A COPPER BATHTUB THAT EMBODIES BEAUTY, HISTORY, AND ULTIMATE LUXURY Offered in antique, polished copper, and brushed nickel finishes Native Trails, the eco-chic company renowned for its artisan-made kitchen, bath, and lifestyle products, has announced its newest copper bathtub design: Santorini. Like its namesake, Santorini freestanding tub exemplifies romance with its beauty and history. Its graceful lines and pedestal base encourage long, lazy soaks that transform the bathing experience. "This bathtub has been designed to be as timeless as the material from which it's made," says Naomi Neilson Howard, Founder and CEO of Native Trails. "The romantic curves that our artisans have literally hand-hammered into place cut a classic figure – at once elegant and feminine, or stately and masculine depending on its surroundings. In Santorini, our design team achieved a beauty that will blissfully endure the test of time." Over the years, the copper bathtub has beautifully withstood trends that come and go. It was the choice of many mid-18th-century French monarchs, who had the tubs rolled into their rooms on casters and filled by servants with water that had been heated over an open flame. Across cultures and time periods, kings, queens, aristocrats, and emperors have chosen to bathe in luxury. Benjamin Franklin famously enjoyed taking a dip in his copper slipper tub; Marie Antoinette and Napoleon Bonaparte, too, were fans of bathing in copper soaking tubs. Santorini brings that experience of a blissful retreat to luxury bathing spaces of today. Artisan-crafted and forged of high-quality recycled copper, Santorini pays homage to the copper bathtub's European heritage and tells the story of generations of Mexican artisanship.
