    Times change, our lives get busier and we have less time to sit and wonder. Our kitchens are filled with gadgets and the next 'must have' thing. I often look at my copper pans and a kitchen kit and wonder what stories they have to tell and wonder what story they would tell of me.

    This 'Lavabo' is a wall mounted water tank with a heavy washing bowl underneath also wall mounted. You fill the upper part with water in the morning and can have running water for washing your hands throughout the day. (There are fixable mounts on the back made of copper) Either way before modern plumbing in a French house this is what you would use for your 'laver' to wash.

    This lavabo is totally hand made even down to the rivets, it is hand hammered and soldered there are seamed joints all over this piece and hammer marks on the surfaces.

    There are two taps.

    This is one of the heaviest I have ever come across, it is a proper antique lavabo from the 1800's and has all the patina you could wish for!

    It has been totally hand hammered, hand raised, hand embossed with a 'Dove of Peace' motif. It is a magnificent piece of original copper design, a superb centre piece or fine addition to any interior.

    The lid fits snugly but perfectly. There are darker patches on the inside of the bowl. The interior of the tank is darkened. You can see all the tell tale signs of a hand made piece.

    This big Lavabo has a magnificent patina and would look fantastic in either a kitchen or bathroom setting.

    This is a truly unique item that has real history behind it and a real story to tell.

    It weighs 8.39 kilos about 18lbs 8ozs (!)

    It measures
    The Bowl is 49.5 cm or 19 1/2 inches wide and 30 cm or 11.75 inches deep and 22cm or 8 5/8th inches deep.

    The tank is 31 cms high or 12 1/4 inches to the top of the tank
    It is 38 cm or 15 inches wide and 25cm or 9 7/8 deep.

    The tank is 52cm or 20 1/2 inches to the fineal.
