The Old House Web

This four-foot long porcelain-over-cast-iron claw foot bathtub is as cute as a button as well as historically accurate. The first new production of a cast iron clawfoot bathtub this size in 60 years, the diminutive soaker is just right for smaller spaces.

The exterior is hand-smoothed, then primed and painted a durable semi-gloss white. Available with or without faucet drillings, the tub measures 48? long, 30? wide, and stands 24.5? tall on its feet.

It has a 12" water depth and a 37 gallon water capacity to overflow hole.

Empty, the tub weighs 225 lbs.; with water, it weight 534 lbs.

Choose white, satin or polished nickel or polished brass feet.

Prices start at $1,375, with free shipping (November 2005).
