About the Item

An antique sink with a cast iron stand by Johnson Brothers (Bros) of Hanley Ltd. This Victorian style porcelain sink on cast iron stand is a beautiful addition to a vintage bathroom or period style cloakroom.

This basin is further elevated by complete original fittings and beautiful cast iron stand made by BICLAM. The Simon Kirby Museum of Bathroom Sanitary Ware Sanitary ware extraordinaire and enthusiast Simon Kirby was the proud owner of a rare and impressive collection of Thomas Crapper toilets, basins and baths. As the former director of Thomas Crapper & Co, Kirby spent more than 40 years carefully sourcing these specialist pieces, making it his vocation to ensure such rare and valuable sanitary ware was saved and salvaged, creating the former Thomas Crapper Museum. Kirby made it his vocation to ensure such rare and valuable pieces were saved and salvaged. Over the years, the former museum has not been open to the public, with only a few history enthusiasts and keen customers having been invited to view a handful of pieces. Names such as Doulton and Co and Twyfords form part of this outstanding collection that demonstrates the development of sanitaryware over the centuries. Although Kirby sold the iconic Thomas Crapper company 8 years ago, he remains an expert in the history of the ‘smallest room’ and now serves as a consultant to the Royal Household.
