Le Manoir collection
Acajou’s mission is simply to create bathrooms which are truly individual. Unique in concept, elegant in form and matchless in refinement, Acajou’s bathroom furniture designs bring an unparalleled degree of luxury to the most intimate room in the home, providing the opportunity to enjoy a bathing experience that is unlike any other.
Acajou is committed to creating bathrooms for people with an instinct for excellence. The pieces in these collections are literally works of art, hand crafted from the finest natural materials, carefully selected for their natural disposition to humid environments. Each item is
beautiful; each item designed to perfectly fulfil its purpose – a seamless blending of function and form. Copper, marble, and exotic woods sourced from sustainable plantations are lavishly used to give a degree of opulence that reflects the taste and status of the client, with the added option of bespoke hand-finishing to achieve total exclusivity.
Your bathroom is your space; the ultimate sanctuary; the room that mirrors your personality. Celebrate your individuality by making a statement about who you are – create your own world of hedonism and unashamed extravagance with Acajou’s exclusive collections.
Introduction
� �
Acajou sets new standards in bathroom furniture design. For over 300 years French furniture has been acclaimed for its style and elegance, and the Le Manoir collection is inspired by this classic tradition.
As in the past, dedicated craft workers maintain this heritage, bringing their artistic skills to the production process and making every Le Manoir piece totally unique. The designs follow exacting modern quality control criteria but the expertise of the artisan ensures that the values associated with individual craftsmanship are maintained at a constantly high level.
The beautifully proportioned Le Manoir collection is designed for luxury living, and only the finest materials are used in the creation of each piece. Lavish use is made of the highest
grade of Italian and Spanish marble, and wooden furniture is made from solid mahogany, featuring marquetry inlay, dovetail joints and hand carved details. Care has been taken to select timber species which are naturally acclimatised to a humid environment. There is no compromise on quality - Le Manoir range is intended to set the very highest standards, and can be made even more exclusive for anyone wanting to realise their own personal vision of perfection. Acajou’s bespoke hand-painted or hand-polished option means that every piece becomes an individual objet d’art. For the discerning client who has risen above the market for mass-produced goods, and who shows an appreciation of fine furniture, Le Manoir provides the definitive opportunity to create a bathroom to match lifestyle expectations.

All counter tops are supplied with one hole plus two pre drilled holes for brassware of your choice to be fitted.
All marble and granite counter tops are polished.
A protective sealant is applied to each counter top during manufacturing, to provide greater stain repellancy to the stone. Please refer to Acajou ‘General Maintenance Procedures’ found in your buyer’s pack, for further information.

that only basins supplied by Acajou should be installed, as the counter tops have been manufactured to fit the basins.
