Sets of this kind were used before widespread mechanised laundry, allowing linens to be scrubbed by hand at low basins or outdoor wash stations. The survival of all three elements together gives this piece strong decorative and documentary interest. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e The sculptural simplicity of the forms makes it especially attractive in a laundry room, bathroom, country kitchen, or as a rustic decorative grouping against a wall. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Length 62 cm (24.4 in), height 45 cm (17.7 in), width 30 cm (11.8 in). \u003cbr\u003e Condition: wear, surface patina, and age-related marks consistent with long domestic use. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Shipping offer: One shipping charge covers your first item, and additional eligible pieces travel in the same parcel at no extra cost worldwide (excluding large dinner services and oversized sets).
