Retro Twyfords Mina Pampas Handwash Basin

Maximise the character of your smallest room with this genuine pampas cloakroom basin. Manufactured as part of the classic Mina range by Twyfords, this basin is finished in the iconic “Pampas”—a light, misty sage green that served as the sophisticated alternative to white from the late 1960s through to the 1980s. Its compact dimensions and soothing hue make it an ideal choice for creating a tranquil, nostalgic atmosphere in a guest cloakroom or narrow en-suite.

Compact Design for Downstairs Toilets

The Mina model was engineered specifically for environments where floor space is at a premium:

• Space-Saving Silhouette: With a width of 45cm and a shallow 29cm depth, this basin provides ample washing space without obstructing movement in tight rooms.

• 2-Tap Hole Configuration (2TH): Featuring a traditional twin-tap layout, it is ready to be paired with original chrome pillar taps or modern high-quality replacements.

• Wall-Mounted Versatility: Designed to be fixed securely to the wall, leaving the floor area clear for a more spacious feel.

Universal Colour Compatibility

One of the greatest advantages of the Pampas shade was its standardisation across the British pottery industry. If you are performing a “like-for-like” repair, this Twyfords basin will offer an excellent colour match for fixtures originally produced by:

• Armitage Shanks & Ideal Standard

• Royal Doulton & Shires

• Johnson Brothers & Allia

Condition: Refurbished to “Like New”

While this is a genuine reclaimed piece, it has undergone an extensive refurbishment process:

• Professional Restoration: The vitreous china has been meticulously descaled, sanitised, and polished to a high-gloss finish.

• Immaculate Surface: We have restored the basin to a “like new” condition, ensuring the glaze is vibrant and free from the dullness often found in untreated salvage.

• Integrity Guaranteed: Verified to be free from chips, cracks, or structural defects.
