I have posted about Urban Archaeology before. We love their attention to detail and very high level of workmanship.
Kathleen posted about a couple of industrial style washstands over at her blog, so I thought I would add my 2 cents to the mix.
A very different price point than Pottery Barn or Restoration Hardware, Urban Archaeology’s Industrial Base is available in polished brass, polished chrome, green petina, brown petina, satin nickel, architectural bronze, statuary brown/black, antique brass or glass. Yes, glass. I would love to see that. Pipe diameters come in 1 inch or 2 inch and their routed Carrara marble top is more than 2 inches thick.
They’ll also fabricate custom configurations. We designed a double washstand was for the King Street House. The team at the uptown NYC showroom did a great job. Their sales reps knew their products well (something many other companies still need to learn), were extremely easy to work with and the piece was executed flawlessly.
