FURNITURE INDOOR & OUTDOOR

Currently there are items from India, Zanzibar, South Africa and France, but things change very quickly.

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.
