Vintage Porcelain Wall-Mount Urinal – Industrial Salvage from The Ugly Broad Bar, Cleveland, OH

This salvaged white porcelain urinal hails from the iconic Ugly Broad Bar in Cleveland, OH, carrying the character and grit of decades past. Its utilitarian shape, high-fired glaze, and substantial weight reflect the industrial design common in mid-century taverns and municipal buildings.
