The first thing most people do when they wake up is wash their face, hands, and mouth in the bathroom. Well, long before running water or in-house plumbing became a thing, this simple task wasn’t so straightforward. People had to make do with a washstand and washbowls with pitchers. The invention of indoor plumbing in the 1900s gradually put a stop to the use of these sets.
Today, many homeowners use the washbowl and pitcher sets as aesthetics. They get selected based on their designs or markings. Some prefer to have their vintage washbowl and pitcher sets complement the space’s decor, while a few go for only the beautiful and expensive sets. For some, collecting vintage washbowls and pitchers is a pastime.
If you pay a visit to a collector’s home, it won’t be out of place to find a washbowl and pitcher set in each room. Of course, they are not being used; however, every collector appreciates the historic charm offered by vintage pieces. Some even go all the way by including a washstand.
You probably know all about the washstands, thanks to our previous posts. This guide will focus more on the washbowls and pitchers found on the washstands.
