Before bathrooms were introduced into the home, the household would all do their ablutions in the bedroom. A large jug and bowl would be usually kept on a marble-topped stand, and water would be poured from the jug into the large bowl and used to wash yourself morning and night.
 
This is a good quality jug and bowl set, which would have been used in relatively wealthy household.
 
In good condition with no chips or cracks
 
Dimensions : Jug measures 28cm high, bowl measures 38 cm diameter
