Antique-of-the-week: A clawfoot tub shower surround!

You know you want a shower!
As you know if you have  a claw foot tub you may long for the occasional shower but those reproduction shower enclosures for your claw foot tub start at about 600.00  and quickly run up to 1500. If you have tall ceilings you need the longer extension rods too and it all adds up!

Shower head can be replaced with a waterfall or a handheld
Faucet is the dual mixer single hole
Well we have one! It came with the house and as part of our bathroom renovations we are planning on a separate steam shower so this one is for sale.  The great thing here is that we have 12 foot ceilings in that room so you have the extra long rod PLUS, because of where they put it, the extension rods are both longer than normal. The actual shower enclosure (where the shower curtain hangs) is 42 inches so it will fit any tub size. Faucet comes with it and its the single hole type. I went on line and priced out the cheapest repro I could find with all the rods and stuff you would need to duplicate this and it would be over 700 bucks.

Log rod off end is adjustable or can be cut
Our price is 350.00 and this wont last long (especially if we put it in the shop when we open, and it will be a much higher price).

Side rod is longer too.
