Longing to fleeing the maddening world, we lock the doors of our bathrooms, the one room in which we will not be disturbed.  Behind closed doors, we scent our bathwater, light candles, sink to our noses in soothing bubbles, and wash away the cares of the day.

We who wish to extend the respite decorate our safe havens with furnishings that recall simpler, gentler times.  We choose antique bathroom vanities that hearken back to the days when gloves, fans, and lockets were de rigueur accessories for ladies of society, when tea was sipped with genteel friends on unhurried afternoons.

Thanks to bathroomvanitiesonly.com, we can recreate those times in the privacy of our bathrooms.  The company offers elegant, footed vanities with counter tops, sinks and optional mirrors.   Sized 26″ for a single sink to more than 60″ for double sinks and available for prompt delivery, the vanities include finishes of cherry, warm honey, antique white, and antique brown, some over distressed birch wood with veneers.  Countertops range from granite to travertine to marble, with the latter choices including Carrera.  Hailing from Italy, Carrera is the world’s finest marble. The great Michangelo insisted on nothing but Carrera marble in sculpting his masterpieces, including The David and The Pieta.
