Art Deco Porcelain
A clawfoot bathtub will instantly give your bathroom a classic vintage flair. This type of bathtub, with famous curvaceous form and solid stout feet, is the perfect centerpiece for a Victorian-inspired bathroom.
One need not break the bank to purchase an antique bathtub made of expensive Cast Iron and coated with porcelain to create the look. For a fraction of the price, freestanding clawfoot bathtubs are just as charming as their historic counterparts.
Innovation in bathtub manufacturing has taken this lavish bathroom fixture into an affordable piece of luxury that is adaptable to most bathroom spaces. Acrylic clawfoot bathtubs are also available and guarantee a lighter weight feature, as opposed to antique cast iron tubs, without sacrificing durability and of course, style. There are several other kinds of clawfoot tubs to choose from. First, there’s the traditional roll rim tub, which is modeled after the cast iron tubs. Then, there’s the slipper tub, which has high back construction for a comfortable seat. Another type would be the double-ended tub, which has each side rounded and comes with a side-mounting faucet. On the other hand, the double-ended slipper tub has higher back construction. Lastly, the pedestal tub, which is more art deco, sits on its base instead of feet. Regardless of which type you choose, you’ll save tons of money when you go for a modern style as opposed to an antique.
To accentuate your vintage-themed bathroom, play around with the aesthetics of your tub and get inspired to embellish its surroundings to create a cohesive old world look. Visit flea markets and scour through salvage shops for porcelain fixtures and Victorian items.
Another piece to match the bathtub would be your vanity. Vanities with carved legs will perfectly complement your bathtub. Again, you may find these in flea markets and even yard sales. Mosaic tiles, ornate curtains, and deep crimson furniture tones will complete the look.
See, purchasing a cheap bathtub does not mean zero style and boring bathroom. It’s all about recreating the look and following through with the appropriate accessories.
