Rare Art Deco cabin washstand – antique marine furniture ~1930

Rare antique painted metal washstand from the early 20th century, likely intended for maritime or utilitarian use. Its narrow, vertical proportions and functional design evoke the layout of transatlantic ocean liner cabins and other maritime environments of the same period. It consists of a tilting lid incorporating an antique mirror, a **decorated glass basin in excellent condition**, a drawer, and a lower compartment closed by a door. The entire piece rests on four original casters and retains its functional side rails. The paint is original, not refurbished, showing a consistent patina of use. The mirror is original and has cracks and spots, consistent with the age and use of the piece, without detracting from its charm or readability. The sober and functional aesthetic of this piece fits within the **utilitarian Art Deco movement of the early 20th century**. An authentic, rare object with a strong decorative presence, ideal for a bathroom, a washroom, or a characterful interior staging.
