After asking for help in finding towel bars to fit a vintage china bathroom sink, Melita saw the photos I posted and realized she had what she needed all along. Above: Here is how the clamp-on towel bars fit on to her vintage bathroom sink. Note, there may be variations of this clamp-on style depending on how the sink was made. Original story that helped Melita with more photos here. Glad it worked out, M!

I was correct – they do clamp directly to the sink! Extra scoop of mint chip for me tonight.

It is so exciting when people who regularly frequent this web site are able to help one another solve their “vintage” problems.

Funny… mine is similar, yet different!!! I have a wobbly bar on one side of the sink and had to go see how it was attached. No clamps on mine!

I found a pair of beautiful wall sinks , blue and green , at a yard sale this week… I think they’re Rheem Richmonds but I haven’t been able to find an exact match in online photo’s .. One has a date of Sept 27 1955 , the other sink (it’s twin) the date is not readable. I need help identifying these sinks.. Is there an expert I can email a photo to?
Thanks..

Hi Brian, there were soooooo many designs I don’t do these kinds of stories. I think you can… start watching ebay for old catalogs also check the Building Technology Heritage Library to see if they have any catalogs. Good luck!
