Claw Foot Tub Faucets

Claw foot tub faucets are available in an amazing number of variations that range from the simple to the complex. Many claw foot tub faucets include handheld showers and cradles causing them to resemble early British telephones. Others feature gooseneck spouts and shower diverters.

Regardless of the style, the lustrous finish of brass adds to the faucet's distinctive appearance. Over time, however, unprotected brass finishes will tarnish even when well cared for with frequent polishing. Fortunately, most claw foot tub faucets are now also offered in protected brass. PVD, Supercoat, and other finishing techniques help to protect the finish from tarnishing and scratching. Brass claw foot tub faucets have a bright shiny finish and even with a protective finish, they must still be gently cleaned with a soft cloth after each use to remove water spots, soap film, and fingerprints.
