We have a thing for old trunks. We have one in the living room that we use as a coffee table. Another one is in our entry way and the kids throw their skateboards and hats in it.
This one needs a little work. It has some metal and wood repair to be done... But we paid $40 for the trunk and the sink, so we think it was a good deal. This trunk is HUGE. It is way bigger than the other ones we have.
I have been scouting out things to be used in my (to be built) potting shed. I wanted an old cast iron sink - and this on is fabulous. It is 48 inches long, and has a drainboard. The date stamp on the bottom says 12-29-25. Isn't it cool? We will be scoping out old wood windows next...

love the sink..what a find! architectual finds are the best!
Absolute great sink! Do you know if it originally had legs? I ran across a couple of white porcelain legs for a dollar at a yard sale and took a chance. They fit my circa 1910 bathroom sink perfectly. Best.

This sink was at one time sitting on a wood vanity. For my potting shed, it will be mounted to the wall and I would like to leave the space under it open... we will fiddle around with the design a bit, I think. :)
