A clawfoot is a furniture leg ending in a carved foot that grips a ball, resembling an animal's claw.
The style appears most famously on bathtubs but also on tables, chairs, and pianos.
As an adjective: a clawfoot tub, clawfoot furniture.
The design dates to the 18th century and suggests antique elegance.
