How Would You Use This???
Comments (9)Boy! CC had all kinds of ideas. She pretty much listed anything I might have thought of and a few more to boot. My favorite idea is the soap holder. That's because my mother had a big collection of cut glass and she often (always, actually) used pieces in the bathroom to hold various items. A celery dish held the bar of hand soap, a large bowl (about the size of your bucket) would hold rolled up face clothes to be used as individual hand towels when entertaining, a small lidded-one had cotton swaps, another piece, set high on a shelf, had colored marbles with greenery cascading out of it. Even when she changed the entire bathroom decor, the cut glass would come back out.

Comments (8)Thanks Green Designs. I suspected that it may not look quite so fabulous in person. I probably will use barn board in our cottage. And *I think* I want to go with a rustic blonde/Scandi look, so dark petrified wood likely wouldn't be a good fit. But, I think the laminate is kind of neat regardless. I wondered us it could be used as a door somehow. Annkh, the wood you saw sounds incredible. I would see this used more as a backsplash than a counter I think.

Comments (31)does the bowl have any markings or makers marks any where on the bottom to indicate where it was made or even what it is made of? I would not rule out it being an alabaster bowl try a google search for images of alabaster bowls! Seems there would be something on it somewhere. It is all very high quality and she apparently cherished it and passed it on to you. I would display it. http://www.rubylane.com/item/203843-1597x237629/Antique-Victorian-Alabaster-Bowl-Pedestal http://www.ebay.com/itm/Stone-Alabaster-Marble-Italy-Bowl-Fruit-Half-Haves-HUGE-/370357881802?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0amp;hash=item563b0ccbca...See More- 3 years ago
