{"product_id":"op-art-print-bath-mat","title":"Op art print bath mat","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA modern bath mat with a retro op art print\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree concentric shapes in heavy black and cream — an ellipse, an hourglass, a rounded rectangle — expanding outwards until they fill the whole mat, which itself has a wavy irregular outline rather than straight edges. It is unmistakably Sixties and completely at home in a modern bathroom. Underneath the graphics there are three working layers: a surface that pulls water through, a diatom foam core that spreads it out to evaporate, and a textured rubber sole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 x 100 cm (17.7 x 39.4 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIrregular wavy outline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColours\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack and cream\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDesign\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrinted concentric op art\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSurface layer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTechnical cloth, draws moisture straight through\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCore\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRubber diatom foam — absorbs instantly, evaporates quickly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSole\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTextured anti-slip rubber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChemicals\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo substances of very high concern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThree layers doing three different jobs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost mats are one material asked to do everything. Here the surface cloth is chosen for how fast it lets water through rather than how much it holds, the diatom foam underneath takes that water and spreads it across the full area so it evaporates instead of pooling, and the rubber sole grips the floor. That separation is why it can be thin, dry quickly and still take a proper soaking from someone stepping out of a shower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAn outline that fits awkward floors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 45 x 100 cm it is long and narrow, which suits the strip of floor in front of a quadrant shower, a narrow bathroom or the gap between a bath and a vanity unit. The wavy edge is doing more than decoration — a mat without straight sides sits more comfortably against a curved shower tray than a rectangle, and it looks deliberate rather than squeezed in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it soft or firm?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirm. This is a thin layered mat rather than a plush one — the comfort comes from a surface that is dry seconds after you step on it rather than from depth. It also means it slides under a bathroom door without catching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWipe or rinse the surface and leave it to dry flat; it is not a mat for the washing machine. Keep it away from heat, which hardens the rubber sole and can make the edges lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee more shapes like this in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/collections\/curved-bath-mats\"\u003ecurved bath mats\u003c\/a\u003e, or browse more in this colour in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/collections\/black-bath-mats\"\u003eblack bath mats\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bath mat","offers":[{"title":"45x100cm","offer_id":55230872420695,"sku":"14:175#3;183:200007736#45x100cm","price":52.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1046\/3733\/3847\/files\/Scdf3e52a97dd435d8495a40e09cd6676r.webp?v=1790948425","url":"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/products\/op-art-print-bath-mat","provider":"Bath mat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
