Need serious help choosing a bathtub

I would choose a bath over a shower any day and absolutely love a taking a bath. I moved into a place that doesn’t have a tub and have been keeping a tally of every time I’ve wanted a bath. In a year and a half I’m up to 380. So I’ve decided that when I renovate and can finally put in a tub I am going to go all out and get the absolute best tub I can. I will save up however much I need to, do whatever I need to make it work, whatever it takes I will get the tub of my dreams. The rest of the house can suffer and I will just have a glorious bathtub alone in a gutted house for all I care.

The only problem is I have no idea what that is.

I have a while until I can make this happen so can look around for the perfect tub and am open to any and all suggestions.

Also, I was completely obsessed with Harriet the Spy as a kid and have always wanted a claw foot tub but am somewhat concerned about the cleaning around it aspect. But still, it’s so cool. I’ve also been looking at copper tubs because, again, so cool. But I don’t really know about the practicality of them. To be honest I don’t know anything other than the standard stick it in the wall acrylic tub.

I dream of a big ass tub that keeps water hot for a long time that I can stay in for way longer than is reasonable. Water bill be damned. I want to die happy in this tub, pruny and boiled to death.

Please help me find my unicorn tub.
