Lavabo Treasure

Found this beautiful Copidemonte Lavabo set from the 1920's - 1930's at a local flea market mall this Spring.  Actually it was my treat to myself for my birthday this year.  I had been looking at it for a couple of years and finally decided to make it mine!  It is just gorgeous....




Look at the detail......


Complete with a spicket.....



All the flowers are intact and perfect.....







What a find......wouldn't you have loved to live in the 1920's?  What a romantic time for decorating and for life!
