The mid-late 1800s "Stylistic" USN Tumblers, 2 available in two different styles. Style #1 is Plain $395. and similar to the other tumblers with the blocked USN initials, and Style #2 is most unique and a bit larger w/ a porcelain design along rim and bottom, $425. Style #2 is the only one we've seen in over 15 years of collecting. Both tumblers in perfect museum quality condition.
There is 1 Soap Dish available with the Stylistic USN topmark and it is squarish, $325. We have only seen this style of soap dish in over 15 years of collecting. There is just small bit of crazing on the front of the dish, it is stable and has remained the same size in over 10 years. We think this style soap dish and the Style #2 tumbler went together as a set.
There is only 1 Stylistic wash basin available and it is in the wooden holder in front of the window in the photograph. This wash basin was also made to sit on a table top as it has a nice base for that and is the only one we've seen in 15 years of collecting. Perfect museum quality investment grade condition andd heavy! $1895.
NOTE: There wer 2 types of shipboard soap dish wall mounts. The first that gripped the soap dish front and back and the second with legs. Both prevented the soap dish from falling out during rough or heavy seas, but also lent itself to being easily removed for cleaning. We have both types at $225.SOLD!.
NOTE: The above combination soap dish and water tumbler wall mount bracket is period authentic but may not have been used aboard ship. This antique wall bracket came with a shipment of US Navy sinks or basins, water tumblers, soap dishes and wall brakets. The combination water tumbler and soap dish wall mount is $150.SOLD!.
Note the soap dish and mounting bracket on the wall to the left in the photo, above the hand towel rack, water pitchers and slop jar.

The condition of this antique US Navy 19thc century soap dish does not get any better.
Above is an excellent example of a rarely found mid 19th century PRE-Civil War era (1850-1858 and most likely 1850-1852) regulation US Navy Straight Razor $799. and is in excellent condition WITH its Original Case! It is stamped "US NAVY." on the blade as was the regulation at the time as well as maker marked on the ricasso:
"B.J. EYRE & Co, Late W. Greaves & Sons, Challenge Razor, Sheffield"
This razor has not been cleaned, honed, or reconditioned and has a great patina. It can certainly be used for its intended purpose but would need to be honed. The handle or scales which appear to be original are made of bone, the hinges, pins, and blade are rust and damage free and all works perfectly with a great patina. The blade is very sharp with one small almost imperceptible nick. The original case is also maker marked like the razor and is in excellent condition with only very minor scuffs. Here is a link to a "Razor Blog" where there is information as to provenance and dating this razor Click Here to Obtain Historical Information on B.J. EYRE & Co, Late W. Greaves & Sons.
Above is another excellent example of a rarely found late 19th century or early 20th century (1890s-1900s) regulation US Navy Straight Razor $225. and is in excellent condition! It is stamped "US NAVY RAZOR." on the blade as was the regulation as well as maker marked on the ricasso:
"J.M. WALKER, U.S. NAVY RAZOR, NEW YORK"
The VERY unique feature about this razor is that US NAVY RAZOR on the blade almost looks like a hologram with a design around the text! Now this razor isn't new, but they somehow imprinted the text and design so that you can only see it when tilting the blade on an angle. This razor has not been cleaned, honed, or reconditioned and has a great patina. It can certainly be used for its intended purpose but would need to be honed. The handle or scales appear to be original and are made of bone. The hinges, pins, and blade are rust and damage free and all work perfectly with a great patina. The blade is very sharp with no nicks whatsoever. There is no case that comes with this razor. We have not been able to find any information as to who J.M. Walker as such we cannot accurately date this razor.
