Victorian Mahogany Marble Topped Washstand
A handsome and characterful Victorian mahogany washstand, showcasing quality craftsmanship, elegant proportions, and beautiful original features. The piece is topped with a substantial marble surface, complete with a shaped back panel and an upper marble shelf, creating a striking and practical display area typical of period washstands.
The warm mahogany base offers rich colour and an attractive aged patina, enhanced by gracefully turned legs that add both stability and visual charm. Beneath the marble top are two drawers fitted with original-style knob handles, providing useful storage for toiletries, linens, or everyday items.
The marble top is in good condition overall, displaying natural veining and light surface marks consistent with age and use. It lifts off easily from the mahogany base for safe transport and positioning. The entire piece is notably heavy and solid, reflecting the quality of materials used in its construction.
There are various marks and signs of wear throughout, all in keeping with its Victorian age and contributing to its authentic character. Historic woodworm is evident to the sides and front; this is non-active and has been fully treated. Rather than detracting, it adds a sense of history and individuality to the piece.
Overall, this is a charming and substantial antique washstand that would work beautifully in a traditional bathroom, bedroom, hallway, or as a unique console table, offering both decorative appeal and practical storage.
