Whenever we’ve come across these ribcage showers in the past (Demolition Depot always seems to have a couple lying around) we stop and gawk and imagine what it would be like to put one of these babies in our master bath. We’ve never come across an antique one in such excellent shape, however. This one, being sold by Architectural Salvage Warehouse in Burlington, Vermont, is from 1918 and made out of nickel. It was originally installed in a tiled shower surround, according to the website. Of course, this kind of thing don’t come cheap. In this case, it’ll run you a cool $7,500. If you’re really nice, maybe they’ll throw in the shipping. While you’re at it, how ’bout a set of 11 bronze hinges for $795?
