Ashwell 373 Cast Iron Clawfoot Bathtub, 170 cm

Ashwell 373 is a cast iron clawfoot bathtub, 170 cm, 170 × 75 × 70 cm.

It is built in cast iron: cast iron with a fired enamel coating, the traditional material because nothing else holds heat as long once the water's in.

Delivery arrives crated on a pallet; two people are needed to move it into the room, ideally before the last stud wall goes up. Ten years of daily use leaves a door seal or a roller tired long before the glass or the tub itself gives up.

Care

Wipe down after use and avoid abrasive cleaners on acrylic or stone resin — they dull the finish permanently. Cast iron and copper only need occasional polishing to keep their look.
