Freestanding Tubs

These bathtubs are separated away from the walls and placed as the centerpiece of your bathroom.

Clawfoot Tubs

Just like freestanding tubs, copper clawfoot tubs can be placed anywhere in your bathroom for a more pliable installation. The name "clawfoot" comes from the clawfoot design at the base of the bathtub, giving it a more elevated position than other tubs.

The copper slipper tub is a variant of freestanding tub that features curved edges which is also often a feature of the classic clawfoot tub. The absence of acute edges stimulates complete comfort and relaxation as its curvature alleviates one’s aching body after a long tiring day. Copper is a recyclable material, so using a copper bathtub is an eco-friendly option in the modern era.
