Knitting, crochet, sewing and embroidery used to be common activities that created any number of practical and decorative accessories for the home. However, as mass manufacturing transformed the textile industry, needlecraft quickly became somewhat outdated. Now Maison Valentina has attempted to bring this technique back to life with the reinterpretation of crochet techniques adapted to modern bathroom furniture. Drawing inspiration from the old and primitive to new and modern art, the Crochet Washbasin is built with great attention to subtle detail and proportion. The top of the basin is made from Estremoz marble while its four legs are of polished brass.
