Victoria & Albert reinvent the slipper bath with new Amalfi
Published:  01 June, 2007

British freestanding bath specialists Victoria & Albert wowed visitors to Expo 2007 with the launch of their latest model, the Amalfi. Described as “the slipper bath reinvented for the 21st century”, the new 1640mm long model taps into V&A’s rich heritage of recreating period reproduction models like the Shropshire in Quarrycast®, a rare volcanic limestone mixed with resin.

The result is a minimalist design that focuses on the elegance of the Victoria original by doing away with some of the more period-specific detailing. Gone are the ball and claw feet and roll top, replaced with softly contoured rimless sides that descend gracefully to the floor – all the waste pipe work is hidden within the Amalfi’s full apron.

Comfort was a central factor in the design process – on the insides the Amalfi is a world away from its Victorian forbears, being highly insulated and warm to the touch. In addition, it features an extended 850mm high backrest to provide full head support for users choosing a long, luxurious soak.
