Abstract: A laminar composite toilet lid and seat are formed of a composite laminar material. The toilet lid includes a core structural layer having a shape and size associated with the toilet lid. The toilet lid also includes a first decorative exterior layer disposed on a first surface of the, core structural layer. The toilet lid further includes a second decorative exterior layer disposed on a second surface of the core structural layer, the second surface opposite the first surface. The toilet lid still further includes a painted edge configured to cover seams between the core structural layer and the first and second decorative exterior layers.

Abstract: A toilet lid or seat for use with a toilet includes first and second metallic layers bonded together along an edge to form a shell having a shape and size associated with the toilet lid or seat, the shell having an interior volume. The toilet lid or seat also includes a core structural layer disposed within the interior volume of the shell. The toilet lid or seat further includes a plurality of exterior layers disposed on exterior surfaces of the shell, the exterior layers configured to envelop the toilet lid or seat.
