What are the best alternatives to Stone Forest bathtubs?
The main alternatives to Stone Forest for a solid natural-stone bathtub in the US are Cultheir (published price and 12–14 week lead time), Rowan Marble Design (the lowest published price, $13,999), Ann Sacks and Waterworks (designer showrooms, prices not published) and Pietra Fonte (made to order, quoted to your specification), as of October 2026.
Stone Forest lists its 66–68″ stone tubs at $33,000–$37,000 (as of October 2026) and sells through dealers. If that's the look you want at a different price, lead time or buying experience, these are the makers worth comparing. We make stone pieces ourselves, so we've included ourselves, but not first, and said who should choose someone else.
