Art Deco stripped everything superfluous away and left only what was beautiful. The Jordan console, named after the coolest character in The Great Gatsby, does exactly that for your bathroom: a solid black granite top on a black stainless steel stand, and nothing you do not need.

Living with an open console changes how a bathroom feels. There is air and light under the sink instead of a bulky cabinet, the single open shelf keeps towels within reach, and the dark on dark finish reads as quietly expensive without shouting. It is the vanity people ask about.

This 30 inch freestanding console from the WatermarkFixtures Parish Collection pairs a solid black granite countertop with a black stainless steel stand and a vitreous china basin. The deck is drilled with three faucet holes at 8 inches on center for a widespread faucet. Faucets, drains and decorative plumbing kits are available separately.

Bring a little 1920s glamour home and let the rest of the room catch up.
