About

Found in bathhouses throughout Japan, hinoki bath stools are used to sit on and wash before proceeding into a bath for a soak. The Kiso Labo Lifestyle bath stool is striking in its unique design and quality. The seat of this stool is angled, which allows for comfortable sitting and proper drainage of water. 

Hinoki wood is antibacterial and resists mold while emanating an entrancing fragrance that is synonymous with Japanese bathing culture.

For an added touch, each stool has the Kiso Lifestyle Labo name seal embossed under the seat on its front side.
