Dear knowledgable ones...

We move into our new house on Friday and the bath is a free standing
modern claw foot affair - with shower off the taps.

We - well SWMBO - wants a ceiling mounted circular curtain ring rather
than the usual square wall mounted effort.

Any recommendations or places to look - we can't find one anywhere...

I offered to bend a length of sand filled 22mm around a suitably sized
tree but that didn't go down too well!

Cheers

SteveB

I'd have liked that. Will you marry me?

Stainless pipe may actually look quite acceptible when polished up.

Walcot Reclamation in Bath do (new) ones but I imagine they'll cost and
arm and a leg. About 800/900mm diameter

Hi Steve,

Does it have to be mounted on the ceiling?

You can get circular rings that can be mounted on the wall from
various places (Next, Cotswold Company, etc).

I have one of these and it works a treat (I was a bit sceptical that
it would sag but it seems fine thus far).

Argos do a circular one, a friend just bought one a couple of weeks ago.
Not sure if it's wall-mounted or ceiling-mounted though. Can't find it on
the Argos website either, but said friend assures me it's in the catalogue.

Many thanks to all for your suggestions. One has been ordered from
Next as the bathroom fittings are brass, and Cotswold and Argos -
found it in the catalogue, thanks - are only chrome, so no choice
really.

Thanks again.
