Hand-crafted cedar spa pools and saunas, made in New Zealand from Western Red Cedar, from Bamford Street in Woolston, Christchurch. The website says each piece is hand-crafted, from the welding and fitting of the stainless steel bands to the profiling of the wood. Three sizes are offered: 2 to 3 people (1380mm diameter), 4 to 6 people (1680mm diameter) and 6 to 10 people (1880mm diameter). Heating can be wood-fired, traditional electric or the latest electric heating, which the website says can save up to 75% in running costs. On-site assembly is available where a spa site is on a hill or has poor access. To arrange a viewing, call 027 384 4294.
The maker has been working with wood for more than 12 years and began building cedar spa pools five years ago. The website says they trained at the Centre for Fine Woodworking, which it describes as Aotearoa's premier bespoke furniture making school. The website also notes the tranquil scent of cedar.
