Vintage Furniture in the Bathroom

Love, love, love these. Find the perfect piece and engineer it to suit your selected tapware and sink. I think I prefer a vessel sink used here instead of an inset vanity sink as it makes much more of a feature.

Check out local vintage markets and antique traders to find your perfect piece.
Marble topped vintage buffet complete with matching vintage style tapware and vessel sink. Perfect colours and tones in the tiling and marble top for vintage appeal.
What I love most about this is the paintwork has been left in its distressed state and not sanded, oiled or painted over AND that the original attached mirror has been included in the bathroom project rather than removing it and installing a wall mounted mirror. This old dresser is perfect with a simple square inset vanity sink and elegant tapware. Love the fresh yellow colour.


Gorgeous vintage console engineered with modern, simple style tapware and vessel sink. Gorgeous. via houzz.com.

 
A gorgeous long line, cupboardless sideboard with turned legs allowing for an abundance of open storage space underneath. A simple white inset vanity sink and simple vintage tapware. Nothing elaborate, but a gorgeous result. via linenandlavender.blogspot. 
A vintage desk fitted with a full vanity top and brass tapware. Loving the wallpaper and matching mirror.  via sandraespinetblog.com.
Simple vintage sideboard with turned gels with semi-inset sink and simple tapware complete the look. via conspicuiousstyle.com.
After a little scouting around I found this gorgeous vintage dresser and some tapware from the English Tapware Co and an above counter round vessel sink from Sydney Bathrooms Kitchens.

 
 
 
 
Or you can simply purchase a new, vintage inspired vanity. The below double vanity from Schots is a lovely reproduction.
