Habidecor Bath Rugs: Bath Mats Never Looked This Good

Bathmats are usually so ugly, I avoid them altogether. But the luxurious, plush and uniquely designed rugs by the Portugal based Habidecor changed all that for me. But they don't come cheap, with the prices running from $75.00 to upwards of $400.00

My personal favorites are their bath rugs whose themes are borrowed from nature:
















In addition to the nature inspired rugs, they have several other colorful plush designs, some of which are shown below:





If you don't like your bathmas or bath rugs to stand out, they also have many luxurious bath rugs in traditional rectangles and various colors.



Habidecor bath rugs and Abyss towels have remained at the top of the industry by mastering the balance between exceptional quality, design, technology, customer service and distribution. This delicate balance has allowed the company to bring its product to an ever-expanding customer base. Take a step toward luxury by stepping into our world.

With twenty-five years of history worldwide and ten in the United States, Habidecor bathroom rugs and Abyss towels have become synonymous with quality, style, comfort and practicality. What began as a partnership between boyhood friends in Northern Portugal has grown to a global network of retailers offering the finest bath and accent rugs in the world.

DTC Sightholder Dalumi Group has launched a luxury lifestyle accessory collection, featuring a diamond-encrusted flash drive and a digital camera accented with diamonds. The launch is a result of a partnership with Korean technology giant LG Electronics and Japan’s Ricoh, a digital photo and office solution leader.

Dalumi Marketing and Business Development Head Yuval Kemp explained that the partnership was directly related to the company’s fashion world debut of the diamond-studded top designed with Gianfranco Ferré last year (shown below).



“The success of the exclusive diamond-studded clothing item that we designed together with Gianfranco Ferré prompted us to partner and manufacture other unique items such as these elegant electronic goods”, said Kemp.

The LG Disk on Key is made up of diamonds from Dalumi mounted in white gold and is valued at $10,000, while the Ricoh Capilo R5 digital camera includes over 200 diamonds, also embedded in white gold, and is priced at $25,000.

The camera and flash drive will be displayed at high-profile, luxury goods exhibitions around the world and will be auctioned at the end of the year, with the entirety of the proceeds going to the SOS Children’s Village in Botswana, a charity for orphans Dalumi has supported in the past.
