VANITIES
The anchor of the bath collection, Room & Board’s vanities are inspired by classic design styles of the past, including arts & crafts, Japanese and modern minimal design, and finished with sustainable, eco-friendly quartz tops. Using responsibly harvested American maple, cherry, walnut, and ash, and corrosion-resistant steel, US artisans make each bathroom vanity to the same exacting standard as all of the brand’s storage collections, with special construction details like dovetail joinery and hand-applied stains.
MIRRORS, MEDICINE CABINETS & LIGHTING
Room & Board’s carefully crafted mirrors and lighting are designed to effortlessly coordinate with the brand’s vanities. Refined mirrors are customizable by the inch and made with high-quality glass to provide accurate reflection, while LED sconces and pendants illuminate and punctuate the bath space.

Crafted in the US, towel racks and cabinet hardware are designed to complement each other and are available in three finish choices, allowing specifiers to mix and match components. Plus, all hardware ships for free via UPS.
