Brief Clawfoot Tub History
Amazing Process.
Clawfoot tub refinishing has become very popular again in recent years, both in the renovation and the new home industry. Cast iron claw tubs have been around since the nineteenth century. They were manufactured on a mold and the cast iron was then spun on to the rotating mold at great speed. This process made for a very heavy tub and an uneven surface thickness with many flaws. As time went on, newer and lighter metals were used in the bathtub manufacturing industry for convenience and ease of installation, many clawfoot tubs ended up in landfills and eventually became a bit of a rarity. In recent years, the demand for vintage clawfoot tubs has increased.
