ABOUT CLAWFOOT BATH TUBS

Clawfoot Bath Tubs are roll-top free-standing bath tubs of 19th century design. They usually have claw feet, as the name implies, but may sometimes have a solid base. Three main types of Clawfoot Bath Tub are available: New Acrylic Clawfoot Bath Tubs, New Cast Iron Clawfoot Bath Tubs, and Resurfaced Antique Clawfoot Bath Tubs. Clawfoot Bath Tubs are also available, new and antique, in solid copper.

Because Clawfoot Bath Tubs are free-standing, they require special arrangements for fixing and plumbing the faucets and drain. These rise from the floor, and are known as Deck Mount Faucets.
