This beautiful large antique wash basin features a richly detailed embossed floral design with cobalt blue, pink, and soft green accents, highlighted with hand-applied gold trim. It belongs to the Cordovan pattern attributed to Haynes Bennett & Co. of Baltimore (Haynes Balt), known for ornate majolica-style Victorian ceramics.
Although this particular basin is unmarked, it comes from a complete antique set in which some other pieces are clearly marked "HAYNES BALT – Cordovan", confirming the maker and pattern. This listing is for the wash bowl only.
