If Sam Cooke were still alive to sing his ubiquitous song 'Cupid', he might suggest lovers listen in a room designed to help that arrow easily and clearly reach its target. We are not talking about heart-shaped tubs, or Pocono-hotel themed bathrooms that are just this side of treacly. We mean surrounding yourself and your loved one with objects which themselves speak the language of love...in a whisper...in your ear...because screaming romance is the antithesis of all things romantic. Instead, let your senses become sated within an environment that says 'love' every day.

Hastings Tile & Bath Fornasettiana Tiles
No one said Valentine's Day can't be playfully romantic. These fire-engine red lips are the graphic equivalent of a big kiss straight from the heart of Italy. The Fornasettiana line of tiles was created by Fornasetti's son in what can only be seen as the apple not falling far from the tree – the entire collection is mesmerizing. The black and white images are imbued with dashes of ruby red creating their own version of an optical illusion.

THG^® Bambou
Many consider the bath a vessel for romance, which makes water the elixir. As part of the Cristal de Lalique Collection by THG^®, the Bambou series is distinct in character and elegance. Contrasting shapes and textures create a dramatic, yet beautifully sophisticated statement. Satin-finished crystal and elegant bamboo motifs gracefully complement the bold contours of the spout. In addition to satin-finished clear crystal, the Bambou series is also available in Lalique satin-finished black and amber crystal.
