Kohler still makes enameled cast iron bathtubs and they're still common. Sinks in older homes are sometimes cast iron too. Tubs with Jacuzzi jets are almost always plastic or fiberglass.

These days almost all bathroom sinks are porcelain, but there's decorative glass and possibly fiberglass.

Kitchen sinks are usually stainless (especially with it being a craze with appliance finish presently) but cast iron with porcelain is an option (that my parents went for since they think stainless is ugly and dumb).

Basement/laundry room sinks are usually plastic these days, in the 70s they were metal and plastic and looked like another laundry appliance, and in the 40s house I grew up in it was cement (weighed a TON) until we replaced it.
