Description
Today we are happy to offer for sale an all-original Crane Co. porcelain shower/tub mixing valve cover! This new-old-stock piece from Crane Co. (founded in 1855 and still in business!) dates to the beginning of the 20th century (patent Dec. 22 1914) and is expertly crafted of durable white glazed porcelain. The escutcheon is used to cover the shower or tub mixing valve. The front reads “Cold to Hot/ Pat Dec 22 1914/ Made for Crane Co”. This piece is ready to be installed and enjoyed! Use it in an antique restoration project, or add it to any bathroom to give it a warm, vintage look. In very good antique, new-old-stock condition, with very minimal shelf wear and no chips or cracks. Fabulous American-made piece that is pure quality and style! Fresh to the market from an old Rhode Island home where these were apparently purchased decades ago and never used!
If you need the matching knob, we have one available as part of a lot of Crane knobs. Check our other listings!

RIAM Return Policy
RIAM stands behind the authenticity of our offerings and the accuracy and completeness of our descriptions. Please consider all information on tags and inspect merchandise carefully when in the shop, or review all photos and copy carefully when shopping online. Because minor imperfections from age and normal use are common with antique items, and “part swapping” or damage resulting from handling, cleaning, or attempted repairs is not uncommon, ALL SALES ARE CONSIDERED FINAL unless verifiable proof of significant misrepresentation is provided by the buyer. Under certain circumstances, some RIAM sellers will consider return requests for reasons including “didn’t fit” or “just didn’t like it”, however the decision to accept a return is entirely at each RIAM seller’s discretion. Depending on circumstances, authorized returns may require a restocking fee of up to 18% and in any case must come back exactly as sold. It is best to inquire about possible return options for any particular item before making your purchase.
