Green is supposed to have a soothing effect, but since I associate these particular shades of green with ancient (mental) health institutions and my previous dentist, who wasn't exactly competent, it comes across as unsettling more than comforting to me.

If there'd been one toilet it'd have been the Lone Throne.

The layers of paint on this picture look amazing, going from soft pastels to a very hard dark red. Odd colour for a bathroom.

I wonder what used to hang on that cork board. There still appears to be a tack stuck on it.

It's a really old water pitcher. Before people had access to running water, they used these to keep and pour the water. Smaller versions combined with a dish were used for washing the body before showers and baths in the home became available to the general public. Once every week or so they went to a bath house for a more thorough wash.
My grandma has a brass pitcher like that (which she of course uses as a vase, hehe), along with a very old and very large Dutch milk churn (which she also uses as a vase).
