Named after the river Wye, this new bath has been designed as a longer, wider, deeper version of our most popular bath – the Usk, giving more comfort in the classic bateau style.
The design of the Wye is based on an 18th century Bateau or ‘boat’ bath, high-sided to retain heat and a grand classical symmetry. The Wye retains the characteristic curves of the traditional 18th century Bateau but is a more practical and comfortable option for bathing, and fits perfectly into traditional or contemporary bathroom schemes.

For IAPMO/MA listed bathtubs, please specify a tub with slip resistance.

Revealing The Iron Beneath

Revealing The Iron Beneath

It takes up to 14 hours for a single skilled foundry worker to hand-polish the exterior of a Drummonds cast iron bath. This meticulous process reveals the raw, hand-poured iron beneath, refining it to a smooth, high-shine finish that honours the material’s natural pitting and subtle irregularities. Once perfected, the surface is sealed with a specialist lacquer, preserving its depth and lustre for years to come. Polished iron is one of our choices of custom finishing a bath tub, offering a refined, architectural presence within both traditional and contemporary interiors.

The Art Of Hand-Enamelling

The Art Of Hand-Enamelling

Enamelling and hand-finishing each bath demands patience and precision. Our own powdered enamel is sprinkled by hand - up to five layers deep - before firing, creating the gently undulating surface that defines the interior of every bath. The enamel fuses with the cast iron itself, forming a surface of exceptional durability.
