If the idea of a white plastic bathtub seems a bit predictable, interior wooden bathtubs take modern bathrooms to a whole new level of luxury with exotic wood designs. Soaking in a deep freestanding timber bath has long been a tradition in many cultures, and now the latest trend to use boat building techniques on bathroom fixtures allows craftsmen to make solid wood tubs that look amazing and last longer. Read on for 35 bathtub designs and sources.

Luxury Wooden Bathtubs

Sapele Wood Tub by Seth Rolland

This outstanding wooden bathtub, dubbed Salish Sea, is the work of master craftsman Seth Rolland. Named for the waters that hug the coast of British Columbia and Washington state, the tub is shaped like a boat. And what a luxurious bath this tub will draw. The overflow is hidden in a second interior rim - where the water falls over and drains to the bottom. Such a unique overflow drain, but then again, everything about this lovely tub is unique.

This tub is made from 200 individual pieces of sustainably harvested Sapele wood!

We just can't get enough of this bathtub. Elegant, organic and flowing, it's one of the nicest wooden tubs we've ever featured.
