The oldest known clawfoot tub dates back approximately 3,000 years and was made of hard pottery and five foot in length. This great‑great‑grandfather of clawfoot tubs was discovered on the island of Crete. The popular clawfoot tub design we know today emerged in late 1800s.

The Victorian era gave birth to the cast iron clawfoot tub. J.L Mott Ironworks Co. is credited with being the first company to product the cast iron clawfoot tub with an enamel interior. Cast iron made the clawfoot tub extremely heavy, weighing anywhere between 250 to 400 pounds. Needless to say, the cast iron tubs are heavy, therefore, difficult to move. But he enamel surface must have made up for the tub's limited mobility. People loved to bathe on the smooth, glasslike surface. Although enamel chipped easily and was cold, the enamel surface made the clawfoot tub very popular for two attributes: it was easy‑to‑clean and did not harbor bacteria.

The 1930s brought about the built‑in bathtub which became the standard. Clawfoot tubs were quickly replaced. In recent decades, many decorators have revived the classical design of the clawfoot tub. Most opt to replace the heavy and expensive cast iron material for less‑expensive acrylic.
