-
Description
This substantial English copper basin from the mid-19th century exudes classic elegance and superb craftsmanship. The basin features a beautifully curved oval body mounted on a matching oval base, which imparts a sense of symmetry and balance to the piece. Enhancing its stately appearance are the opposing lion head brass side handles, which not only provide functional support but also add a touch of regality and sophistication.
Measuring approximately 6 3/4 inches high and 22 inches long by 15.5 inches wide, this large basin is a prominent and eye-catching piece. It is in great antique condition, with wear appropriate to its age and use, contributing to its historic charm and character. The rich patina that has developed on the copper surface over time further accentuates its antique allure.
This basin is a versatile decorative element, suitable for various settings, whether as a standalone centerpiece or as part of a larger collection of antique furnishings. Its combination of aesthetic appeal and practical functionality makes it a treasured addition to any home, evoking the timeless beauty and craftsmanship of 19th-century English metalwork. -
