Description To the best of our knowledge, this washstand was built around 1850-1890, and spent all of its time within our family, in Washington, D.C. It is all original, and made with mahogany. It has one 26-1/2" wide top drawer, and cabinet-style doors. It is in good condition, and has never been refinished or stripped. It has some light surface scratches that would readily restore with refinishing. The drawer pulls are made of glass, and are original. Dimensions: 31-1/2" wide, 16" deep, 29" high to chest top/36" high to top of back board.
