Let's talk fabulous toilets

We all know that Italy and Italians have a kind of effortless style.  It can all be summed up in this bathroom.  This is the most splendid bathroom in the entire world.  Non capisco, you might say.  Let me explain.  This perfect little toilet/bidet duo is glorious.  They are just the perfect size, set at the right height.  Stylish little scoop-like bowls.  Simple and pure design.  So beautiful.  I must have them.  Then you have a circular shower that leaks GALLONS of water out on to the inlaid marble floor.  It's treacherous.  It makes every shower into a sort of dangerous act.  But the floor is at least QUITE beautiful and if you do fall and crack your head the lighting in the bathroom is lovely and when the medics come to revive you you will look rather fetching.  I simply love the different colors of marble.  I must have this as well.  The towels... um, the towel (you only get one) is ENORMOUS and could serve as a tent.  Honestly, use this shower, dry off, douse yourself with Acqua di Parma (unisex fragrance) and you will feel like either Marcelo Mastriani or Anita Eckland or both.

  1. Thanks for sharing your toilet experiences. The Italians are remarkably good at bathrooms. When I was in Venice years ago, the little bathroom soaps in my hotel room smelled so wonderful I brought them home with me.
