A new trend in luxury is the humble bathtub. Tamara Ecclestone recently splashed out (sorry!) on a £1 million crystal bath.

Now, I present to you the World’s most bling bathtub, the limited edition Catchpole & Rye Swarovski Elements Crystal bath.

This bath took over 200 hours to apply the crystals by hand and is now in Harrods as part of the Swarovski xmas celebration.  Compared to Tamara’s, this one’s a steal at £150,000.

There is also a baby bath version priced at 120K – Harper…tell your mummy!

The ‘Saracen’ is a classic Catchpole and Rye bath made in their Kent foundry in traditional methods and employing their experienced craftspeople at every part of the process.

The crystals are all white, of four different sizes and applied in random fashion which serves to emphasise the light refracting properties of the crystals and creates a truly spectacular sparkling effect.

This is the first time that Harrods and Swarovski have joined forces at Christmas and also the first collaboration between Catchpole & Rye and Swarovski.

You can find the World’s most bling bathtub on the second floor of Harrods in the bathroom department – take your shades!
