Have any of you ever seen a wooden bathtub before?! I didn't even know they existed! Inspired by the comfort of an antique armchair and the sweeping sheer of a sailboat, Bath in Wood of Maine has been crafting wooden bathtubs for three years. This particular double bathtub featured in Design New England is made from a deep-sealed Honduran mahogany. Imagine how long the water would stay warm in that! (And what fun kids would have pretending it was a boat!) Oh, and the bead-board wainscoting is painted Benjamin Moore's Silver Marlin. How could I forget! To learn more about these unique wooden tubs, head over here!

That one is beyond beautiful!
I am speechless. This took my breath away!
WOW that is incredible. I am not sure I am sold on the look for me at my villa but it is pretty cool.

Absolutely gorgeous. And so unique. I love the concept.
That's amazing (and so unique)!
Wow! I certainly had no idea a tub could be made of wood. That stain looks so great with the pale turquoise walls. Such a crisp, calm room.
Wow! What a statement piece!!!
Holy moly, that tub is stunning!
Wow...this is just breathtaking!
The best thing about a wooden bath tub is that I would presume you MUST use it regularly in order for it to stay water tight. What a great excuse to take a bath.
Erin I have never seen anything like it!
Fabulous for a lake or mountain retreat...would you oil the interior I wonder?

That is the most unique bathtub I have ever seen. It's absolutely gorgeous. Great inspiration.
OMG!
Wow is all I can say. Certainly better than the large porcelain "boat" that inhabits most of our bathrooms. Wonder if you can get splinters in your "bootie"?
Absolutely gorgeous! I see white sheets in my mind, like in the 18Th century!
Mmmmm, Silver Marlin is a delicious color! Looks very much like Rainwashed.
Thanks Erin.
Incredibly sexy.
Now I want one.

Oh my word! That is one incredibly beautiful tub! Sure I knew they had wooden tubs way back when, but I did not know that wooden tubs existed in this century. I can honestly say that I would love to have one!

its official I am suffering from a severe case of Bath Envy!
i think wood would be fantastic. the long-term upkeep and appearance make me wonder ...
It's a great tub. I've seen one other that I thought was great too. Check out the great tub from Canadian House & Home. It's the last pic on a recent post...http://prettyinspirational.blogspot.com/2011/01/bathroom-inspiration-pictures-plus-2011.html
Amazing! I just wanted to let you know I named you as one of my favorite design blogs over on my design blog!
Holy gorgeousness! I've never seen such a tub, and now I am obsessed :) xoxo, Annemarie
Amazing!! I guess their is a first for everything! Makes for a beautiful bathroom!
Well I thought for sure a wood bathtub would be made of teak, but that mahogany is very pretty and the tub is UNREAL it is so gorgeous! Just a real showpiece. I'd love to be soaking in there right now.
Wonder how you care for a wood bathtub? How do you clean it? Hmmmm.

Hi,
The interior of the house is just opossum and i want to live in this dream home.
As beautiful as this tub is, Honduras Mahogany is a protected species as most mahogany, especially from South America, is. There are other companies that make wooden bathtubs that you can find on the internet. They sell them here in the UK.
I think when we design our homes, we really ought to look at the bigger picture.
Gorgeous!!
Fantastic!!
Love this bathroom. The tub is definately the focal point of the room and really creats a unique look.
What an amazing bathtub! Just found your blog, and my favorite color is also turquoise, thanks for the lovely pics!!!
oh my heavens. i am so in love with this tub! one day i'll have one...one day
That bath tub takes my breath away :)
This is amazing! Any idea how much one of these would cost? I assume it would be a fortune since they don't even list approximate prices on their website. Love it.
Anne,
The magazine article said they start at $8,000. Not cheap, but each one is made to order and crafted by hand. So very pretty!
by far the coolest bathtub i have ever seen!
Unless you have decided to opt for a free standing bath then the question of choosing the right bath panel for your bath is one that you are likely to have to consider. Most conventional baths will have panels, as these are used to hide all the rather unsightly pipe work and the underside of the bath.
