One of our readers is searching for an item that goes along with a beautiful
set.  If anyone has any leads on where he can find this, please post here.

"I have been trying to locate a Homer Laughlin Wash Basin, Pattern 2366,
Violets Pattern.  It has purple violets with gold flowers and trim.  It is
supposed to be Dutch Shape in toilet ware.  I Have the rest of the set from my
Grandmother, and it is still almost as good as new.  I have the large water
pitcher, but I would really like to find the Wash Basin to complete the set.  I
have almost exhausted my searching ability.  Someone has to have "one
somewhere.  Thanks, Harry J" You can see the images of this lovely set here:

used for.  There was one good response, so thanks, Alan!

maker/carpenter.  No markings.  16 inches by 8.  Can be fastened to a table
with screws." You can see the images here:
