While we don't like to toss around the word "rare" very often, into 13909 Antiques is a most uncommon item;
Antique Metal and Enamel Wash Basin, with Stand
This oringinally comes from England, and came out of the summer home, up north, from a weathly family who ran, decades ago, some kind of hotel, or boarding house.
Once indoor plumbling came into vogue, a half-dozen of these Antique Metal and Enamel Wash Basins, with Stands were shuttered to the attic.
This one survived.
It does have signs of use and wear ... The large blue pitcher has rust and a small hole in it's base, and, as with old enamal, various knics and dents, some with rust.
It comes with the stand, the large pitcher, the sink basin (which has a drain hole), the mid-size pot to catch the water, and another small enamel chamber pot.
This would be a great piece for someone that runs a Bed-and-Breakfast, a nice prop for the lobby
It's here, at 13909 Antiques, so come to check it out, and cart it away
