Though many more contemporary designs have sprung up in recent years, the classic, elegant baths are still a popular choice for the bathroom suite. The following is an introduction to some of the more coveted models.
First and foremost, most classic bath designs are freestanding, since bathtubs were not traditionally built into the wall. The feet that may be on such bathtubs are wide ranging, but one of the most popular foot designs is the claw foot. The claw foot provides a look that is both unique and elegant. A traditional chrome foot is also common with classic bath designs. The boat style bath does not have feet.
As far as the design for the tub part of the bath, there are several available. Popular examples include the slipper style bath, where one end is raised to create a more ideal lounging environment, and the double ended tub, where both ends of the tub are rounded instead of having one end flat. There is also the double slipper tub, which entails both ends of the tub being raised and sloped.
