FAQs
For a basin that finalises the aesthetic tone of a bathroom, a washstand sink is a great choice. Our washstands come in an array of designs making them suitable for any personal stylistic taste.
Stand mounted basins are perfect for those who want a practical bathroom basin, but with a unique and intentional style.
What are the benefits of having a washstand bathroom basin
Washstands are beneficial for those who want to incorporate a specific style into their bathroom but may not have the space required for a bathroom vanity. Washstand sinks can be grand in the character they add to a bathroom setting whilst also being minimal in the space they take up.
Washstand basins can be as invasive as you want when it comes to space. Whilst their simple design will ensure that the openness of a bathroom is maintained, the stand itself can be as wide as you like. If you’re limited to bathroom space, a frame that spans no wider than the sink itself would work well. For a room with more space to utilise, some of our washstands that span a metre or over in width could be a great choice.
Are they for traditional or contemporary design bathrooms?
What’s great about the washstands at Victorian Plumbing is that there’s such a diverse range, meaning that there are washstands for both contemporary and traditional style bathrooms.
When looking to implement a timeless and classic design aesthetic into your bathroom, our traditional style washstands complete with chrome leg stands are the perfect fit. Both ornate yet tasteful, these traditional washstands suit those looking for a quintessentially classic feel.
However, for those aspiring for a more modern look, washstands can work for this aesthetic too. For those infatuated with the industrial chic and minimalist aesthetics, there are plenty of washstand basins available.
What different styles of washstand are there?
Outside of the aesthetic theme, there are also different structural design styles to choose from when it comes to washstands.
When wanting the traditional washstand feel, an Edwardian style washstand could be the right choice. These often come as a white basin and chrome leg combination. They can come in square, rectangular and even rounded structures.
Washstands also can come in a console design. Console washbasins typically span a metre or more in width, whilst remaining quite narrow in depth. This width provides space either side of your basin for toiletries and bathroom accessories.
Many of the washstands we offer also feature built-in shelving. Our smaller washstands in this style house a single open shelf part way down the stand. Our bigger units even feature drawer or cupboard compartments all in a sleek and compact washstand design.
