11 Two-Toned Clawfoot Tubs

May 15, 2018
  • Share

We’ve talked about dreamy freestanding tubs before, but now I want to chat about two-toned clawfoot tubs!

I just bought a vintage clawfoot tub for my latest design project — and like most of my finds, it’s in great shape but needs just a bit of refurbishing.

Full disclosure, I never in my life thought I would want a clawfoot tub… it seemed a little too quaint for me. Never say never, I guess, because now I’m obsessed with the idea of having a two-toned clawfoot bathtub — black and white in particular.

Below I’ve rounded up some of my favorite photos of the trend for inspiration!

Black, white and fabulous all over. This timeless color scheme combines subway wall tiles and hexagon floor tiles for an extra dose of drama.

This bathroom designed by Katie Hackworth is perfection — the doors, the Spanish floor tile, the freestanding tub … I love it all!

A modern bathroom design that I’d have no problem enjoying a relaxing bath in. Love how the black tub is complemented by the black accent wall.

This stunning bathroom can be found inside a charming home in Italy’s remote village of Giuggianello. I love the idea of enjoying a relaxing bath with a view of the gorgeous garden. Fun fact: The cast-iron tub was picked up on a Rome street. Not a bad find, right?!

These fish scale floors paired with the gold accents from the claws and mirror are everything! I could use some rest and relaxation in this room right about now!

The drama! Don’t be afraid to take a risk with color — this black and white combination is so sleek, chic and modern!

A little fun fact, Jenna Lyons (former creative director and president for J.Crew) started the trend way back when she showed off the tub in her former Brooklyn brownstone.  Somehow she modernized the tub in one design swoop! Now the two-toned tub is a staple… I’m in.

Ok, ok, I know I said I was focusing on black and white clawfoot tubs… but how beautiful is this light teal and white combination?!

This en suite French bathroom is oh, so glamorous! The polished nickel vintage style claws are perfect with the gray clawfoot bathtub and nickel and glass etagere.

This tub technically isn’t two-tone as it’s white on the inside and bottom, but I would be remiss not to include this beauty with fabulous gold details. I could run a bath with a glass of wine right now!

Simple and unfinished, yet very welcoming! The all white room and subway tiling makes the black tub pop.

While you’re here, I think these bath time essentials (below) will pair perfectly with any clawfoot tub!

I understand that people have strong feelings about the two-tone clawfoot tub style — some are totally into it while others, not so much. I’m trusting my gut on this as I’ve already purchased a tub (no turning back now!), but I’m curious to know what others think.

So, thoughts?? Give me a shout!

    Love the two tone clawfoot tubs. It looks like black and white seem to be the most popular, but for me, a beautiful verbena green would make me very happy! I’ve seen one and it was lovely. Go with the two-tone and choose the color that makes you happy.

The best tables are the ones that invite people toThe best tables are the ones that invite people to sit down, stay awhile, and make memories. ✨
These are a few tablescapes I’ve created in my dining room, each one layered with pieces I love and little details that make the table feel special.
Mix your favorite plates, layer soft linens, add fresh flowers or greenery, and light a few candles. There’s no one right way to set a beautiful table. It should feel collected, welcoming, and uniquely yours.
Comment TABLE below and we’ll send you more tablescape ideas to inspire your next gathering.

Want a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and invitingWant a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and inviting? Start with these simple changes:
1. Layer your bedding. Mix sheets, a duvet, quilts, and throw blankets to create that plush, lived-in look.
2. Add warm lighting. Swap harsh overhead lighting for bedside lamps, sconces, or a statement light with a warm glow.
3. Bring in plenty of texture. Think linen, velvet, boucle, chunky knits, and soft rugs.
4. Keep the palette warm and calming. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and muted colors instantly make a room feel more restful.
5. Mix in natural materials. Wood, rattan, woven accents, and stone add warmth and character.
6. Make the walls feel personal. Art, photographs, or even a statement headboard can make the room feel more finished.
7. Add something organic. A vase of branches, fresh flowers, or a little greenery can bring the room to life.
The goal isn’t to make your bedroom perfect. It’s to make it feel like a place you actually want to retreat to at the end of the day.
Save this for your next bedroom refresh. 🤎

Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive.Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive. 🌸
One thing I’ve learned is that every outdoor space needs a focal point. It gives your eye a place to land and makes the whole space feel more intentional.
In this courtyard, the bougainvillea naturally becomes that focal point, adding color, height, and movement without overwhelming the space.
If you’re designing your own patio or garden, start with one standout feature, then let everything else support it.
Save this tip for your next outdoor project. ✨

Design by @covetnoir. A 1750 Georgian home in Surr Design by @covetnoir. A 1750 Georgian home in Surrey, restored back to its former grandeur.
Grade II listed and stripped of most of its original character by previous owners, this 9,000 sqft home with seven bedrooms, and five bathrooms was brought back to life for a French-Swedish couple raising two young kids here. The brief: Parisian luxe with a Scandinavian twist, and a design calm enough to keep the grand proportions feeling intimate.
Covet Noir rebuilt what had been lost: full plasterwork, raised & fielded panels, a bespoke decorative ceiling, and added a cantilevered limestone staircase with Nero Marquina cabochon inlay in the entrance hall. The material palette leans into marble and alabaster, softened with boucle and brushed cottons, chosen to hold up to two kids and two dogs without losing the elegance. Antique furniture and architectural fittings were sourced throughout to keep the project sustainable, alongside ground source heating.
Grand bones, calm hand. This is the kind of restoration we could look at all day. 🤍
