An antique Shanks Carrara marble sink sourced from a country house in Cheshire, England. Dating from the early 20th century, this beautiful Shanks sink has an original shaped marble skirt and undercoated porcelain basin, making it a rare piece and stunning addition for a vintage bathroom or period style cloakroom.
The shaped chrome brass legs are accompanied by stylish tumbler holders and splash back.
Shanks & Co
Shanks & Co Ltd was founded by John Shanks in partnership with his brother Andrew in 1851 and quickly became an iconic British company. Based in Paisley, Scotland, together they went on to achieve worldwide success supplying and fitting sanitary ware, including on the Titanic and cruise ships Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth - making this original sink a quality find to become the focal point of any antique style bathroom.
We have a second similar sink available.
