Clawfoot Tubs May Bring Back Memories of the Past, But They’re Top Choice Design Feature in New Homes and Remodels Because of Look, Design and Practicality

The old-fashioned, cast iron clawfoot tub is the latest in bathroom design for both remodels and new bathroom construction and provide a great way to add a unique look to your bathroom. Additionally, your cast iron clawfoot tub can be customized with various feet (ball feet, claw feet), which come in various finishes, such as chrome, brass, or nickel, ensuring you create a look that is all your own.

Although cast iron, these clawfoot tubs boast a beautiful white porcelain interior, with an exterior that is sanded smooth and painted white. In fact, cast iron clawfoot tubs boast the best porcelain finish on the market today.

Today’s cast iron clawfoot tub comes in a wide range of sizes, starting around 48” and going all the way up to a very sizable 72” and is available in a variety of styles, with something to suit every décor and every budget. Cast iron clawfoot tubs come in 4 major styles:

• Traditional Roll Rim, Roll Top, or Flat Rim refers to the rim around the bathtub.

• Slipper Tubs - Distinguished by a high-back construction, which provides a more comfortable seating position. If you prefer to lounge in the tub with a place to rest your head, the slipper bathtub gives you unmatched support, with one end of the clawfoot tub raised and sloped for reclining.

• Double Slipper Tubs - Both ends are raised and sloped. They can be used from both sides and which ever position you want. The drain is in the center and the taps are placed on the side of the tub.

• Pedestal Tub - Pedestal tubs, unlike all the style listed above, do not have claw feet. The tub rests on a pedestal in what most would term an art deco style.

Evidence of pedestal tubs date back to the Isle of Crete in 1000 B.C.
