A Federal Mahogany and Flamed Birch Veneer Basin Stand, Boston, c.1800

This basin stand originally belonged to Sarah Bass (1768-1838) and descended in her family to the present owner, from who we purchased it. This washstand, in an old surface, and in original fine condition is everything the purist collector looks for: history, surface, and condition. It is typical of Boston washstands of this period, and few have survived without damage and with a good old surface.

Height: 39 1/2 in. Width: 23 in. Depth: 15 1/4 in.
