Add An Antique Bathroom Vanity Unit For A Unique Look
Antique bathroom vanity units can really add a lot of character to your room. It allows you to get a sense of history even if you live in a brand new condo. Here are a few tips to incorporate this style into your home.
Vessel sinks really open up your options for antique bathroom vanity units. They allow you to turn almost any piece into a bath vanity. This is really important because it can be difficult to find a piece made specifically for the dimensions of your bathroom. You can turn a vintage dresser or desk into a vanity. Vessel sinks will look modern so you want to make sure that you get a vintage feeling that will match with your vanity. You can do this by going with plain white porcelain or an imitation hand painted china sink. This will have the overall appearance of an old washstand.
Once you've got the vanity it's time for a bathroom counter top. Look for any simple neutral material. You'll really want the focus to be on the beautiful vintage wood carvings that are so common with this design style. Dark and dramatic stains will also make this the focal point of your room. You don't want your counter top to detract from the craftsmanship of the wood. You can still have a high end look by going with a stone; just keep it in a neutral white or cream color.
When you do come across one of these pieces it may not be in the best shape. Then you need to decide if you’re going to restore or just totally makeover the piece. If you don't think that you can refinish the piece then consider paint. You'll retain all of the charm of the moldings and scroll work but you can match the piece to the color palette of your room.
Antique bathroom vanity units have a lot of character. It's the perfect way to compliment your architecture. It's also a unique look and allows you to create a one-of-a-kind piece on a budget.
