SELF RIMMING Q & A

Does anyone out there have a retro (1960’s circa) lavender or lilac self-rimming, oval bath basin?

I recently bought the home that my grandfather built (and I grew up in.) My grandmother had wanted a purple bathroom (it was the 60’s) – and my grandfather put in the light purple sink basin, toilet, and bathtub. The counter holding the sink is 6 feet long and I would love to find another basin to match the existing; to form a double sink. Checked Lowes, Home Depot, EBay and various websites without luck. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Mansfield offered a lavender china colour about two years ago – you might want to call a plumbing supplier to see if they can call Mansfield to check stock. ( http://www.mansfieldplumbing.com )This isn’t likely – but give it a try.

What you could also do – and this would be really hit and miss – would be to check out a building products recycling store (for instance – we have a “Habitat Re-Store” here).

Or maybe – just maybe you could get an old enamelled steel sink and get it re-glazed in lavender.

Anyway – if none of that works… why not just get two white sinks? Most 60’s baths that were lavender were also done in white. That could be your last resort I suppose. Good luck!

Hope this helps!
