This is a view of a bathroom interior from 1883 bathroom remodeling project that is fitted up with "the most approved modern appliances" of the day. The engraving represents "the latest and best sanitary appliances" from the New York store, J. L. Mott Iron Works. In 1882, the J. L. Mott Iron Works of 88 Beekman Street, New York, sold the porcelain-lined baths, and the Hygeia and Demarest water-closet for the bathroom remodeling project. The woodwork is mahogany with hand painted tile accents. The bathtub in this bathroom remodeling project is molded and glazed in one piece. It is advertised as " non-absorbent of moisture, unaffected by atmospheric agencies, such as oxidation, etc., which speedily attack and deteriorate wood, zinc and other metal goods of this character." |
