Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Introduced during the nineteenth century, shaving stands were specialised pieces of gentlemens bedroom furniture designed to hold shaving basins, water, and accessories at a comfortable height, featuring an adjustable mirror for grooming convenience.

These stands were typically crafted from solid dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, often featuring brass adjustment mechanisms, turned wooden columns, and mirrored glass inserts.

Authentic pieces feature period-correct joinery, brass thumbscrews or telescopic fittings for mirror height adjustment, hand-turned pedestal shafts, and tripod or splayed bases characteristic of late nineteenth-century cabinetmaking.

In modern spaces, these compact stands function well as decorative plant pedestals, hallway accent pieces, or unique vanity additions in guest bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms.

Dust the wooden framework regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the grain annually, avoiding harsh chemicals or excess moisture that could damage the wood finish.
