Natural Beige Limestone Bathtub | Luxury Stone Soaker
Descripción general del producto
Transform your daily bath into a spa experience with our Natural Beige Limestone Bathtub. Unlike cold cast-iron or plastic tubs, natural limestone possesses excellent thermal mass, keeping your bathwater warm for extended periods. This specific model is characterized by its “Double Rim” design—a detailed lip at the top and a matching base at the bottom—giving it a substantial, grounded appearance perfect for classic or Mediterranean-style bathrooms.
Stone Characteristics
Beige Limestone is formed over millions of years and is prized for its subtle beauty. Key features include:
- Texture: Smooth, honed surface that feels soft and velvety to the skin.
- Visuals: Warm cream and beige tones, often featuring tiny fossil fragments or shells visible within the stone matrix.
- Durability: A dense sedimentary stone that becomes more beautiful with age.

Descripción de color y patrón
Beige Limestone offers a soothing, neutral palette. The color is consistent but never flat, ranging from light sandy hues to deeper oatmeal tones. You may find small quartz veins or fossilized marine life embedded in the surface, which serve as a certificate of authenticity for natural stone.
Principales ventajas
- Heat Retention: Stone absorbs heat from the water and radiates it back, allowing for longer, warmer soaks.
- Solid Construction: No hollow sounds. No flexing. Just solid, permanent luxury.
- Repairable: Unlike acrylic, minor scratches on honed limestone can be buffed out with fine sandpaper.
- Unique: No two blocks of limestone are identical; your bathtub will be one-of-a-kind.

Embalaje e instalación
Embalaje: The tub is wrapped in protective plastic and foam, then secured inside a heavy-duty, fumigated wooden crate reinforced with iron straps.
Installation Note: Due to the weight (~750kg), ensure your floor joists or concrete slab can support the load. Installation requires a professional stone handling team.
Buying Guide: Natural Stone Bathtubs
Cómo / Por qué / Qué / Opciones / Consideraciones
- How it’s made: Subtractive manufacturing. We start with a 2-ton block of limestone and carve away the inside and outside until the bathtub shape remains.
- Why choose Limestone: It is softer and warmer to the touch than marble or granite, making it the most comfortable stone for bathing.
- What to consider: Access. Ensure the tub can fit through your doorways and staircases before ordering.
- Options: We can customize the length (e.g., 1500mm for smaller spaces) or change the finish to “Antique Tumbled” for a rustic look.
- Mantenimiento: Limestone is porous. We seal it before shipping, but you should re-seal it annually. Avoid acidic cleaners (vinegar/lemon).
FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the bathtub made of solid stone?
Yes, it is carved from a single, solid block of natural limestone. It is not reconstituted stone or concrete.
2. How heavy is it?
A standard 180cm tub weighs between 700kg and 850kg. You must verify your floor’s structural capacity.
3. Does it hold heat well?
Yes, limestone has high thermal mass. Once the stone warms up, it keeps the water hot much longer than acrylic or cast iron.
4. Does it come with a drain?
We drill the drain hole to fits standard plumbing (1.5″ or 2″), but the metal drain hardware is not included.
5. Is it comfortable to sit in?
Yes, the “Honed” finish creates a smooth, satin-like surface that is very comfortable against the skin.
6. Does it have an overflow?
Typically, solid stone tubs do not have an internal overflow. We recommend installing a floor drain in the bathroom.
7. How do I clean it?
Rinse with water after use. Clean weekly with a mild, pH-neutral soap. Never use bleach, ammonia, or acidic cleaners.
8. Can you make it smaller or larger?
Yes, as a factory, we can custom carve the tub to any dimension you require (e.g., 150cm, 170cm, 200cm).
9. Will it stain?
Limestone is porous. We apply a penetrating sealer before shipping, but hair dye or harsh chemicals can stain it if left too long.
10. How is it shipped?
It is packed in a very strong wooden crate with foam padding. It is shipped via sea freight to your nearest port or door.
11. What is the lead time?
Production usually takes 2-3 weeks. Shipping times vary by location (e.g., 4-5 weeks to USA/Europe).
12. Is the color consistent?
Beige limestone is relatively consistent, but being a natural material, slight variations in shade and fossil patterns are normal.
13. Can I use it outdoors?
Yes, limestone is excellent for outdoor use and will develop a natural patina over time.
14. Do you provide a faucet?
No, we sell the stone tub only. We recommend a floor-mounted tub filler.
15. What is the MOQ?
Our MOQ is 1 piece. We welcome individual homeowners, designers, and wholesalers.
