| Beautifully Decorated Bathroom-Counter Base is a Bike |
|---|
| This item is not in my collection. The photo was sent to me by my Swiss-TX friend, Andre. This beautiful and well thought out bathroom decoration uses a ladies lightweight bicycle for the base of the counter. Notice the basket & braces (towel holder) have been painted black to continue with the color theme. I cannot see the bike clearly enough for a positive identification but it appears to be a Raleigh made Hercules brand imported to the USA by AMF in the 1960s. The plumbing, sink, tiles, window & light fixtures have all been tastefully chosen. I would appreciate being contacted by anyone knowing the details of this photo and/or the location of this bathroom. I have a few bicycle motif ceramic tiles that would fit beautifully in the backsplash behind the valve fixture. [Item# BathRm Counter Top] |
