The Spa, housed in the Peninsula New York Hotel, is a 35,000-square-foot oasis featuring thermal suites with ice fountains set against a backdrop of <a href="http://store.bisazzausa.com/shop-by-mosaic-color/yellow-gold/" target="_blank">24-karat gold Bisazza mosaic</a>.

<p>The beauty of the mosaic illuminates the dream-like environment of marble, warm woods and hues of cinnabar, amber and charcoal throughout the Spa. The gold mosaic allows a wide range of luminous effects and shades to enhance the calm lighting of <a href="http://www.peninsula.com/New_York/en/Wellness/default.aspx#/New_York/en/Wellness/The_Peninsula_Spa_by_ESPA/" target="_blank">the Spa</a>, particularly because of the diffusion and vibration of light off the shimmering gold.</p>
