FURNITURE INDOOR & OUTDOOR
IN THE BOER WAR FROM 1899 TO 1902 it was the habit of British officers to have a washstand like this for morning washing and shaving. Most of these items were supplied by the Army and Navy Store in London`s Victoria Street. This is a fine example, made of oak with a beautiful, delicate, ceramic tile back. After the war many found their way into hotels and large houses. I found this in a small shop in Halfway House and it has been the perfect greeting as a hall table since. The marble top half is separate and can be turned over to make a smaller volume for shipping. Reference 3652. Euros 265.
THE SPLASH BACK tiles are among the most beautiful in delicate colour and graceful design I have seen.
