This Period 18th century copper lavabo features two solid copper finials at top and two brass spigots at the bottom of each half of the lavabo. The French antique piece is uniquely mounted on an 18th century carved and finished oak panel. The crown, top half, and base are embellished with a scroll work pattern pressed into the copper. Finally a large copper bowl rests under the fountain at bottom. Often times a piece like this will be used as a wall ornament today with ivy growing in the bowl at bottom.
