Vintage Standard Pink Porcelain Toilet Tank Lid

Description : This original Standard porcelain toilet tank lid is finished in its factory pastel pink glaze and is designed to fit select mid-century Standard two-piece toilets. The underside is marked 4049-14 with a JUN 26 production stamp, indicating an original vintage component rather than a modern reproduction. The lid retains a glossy finish with light signs of age and use, making it an excellent replacement for a missing lid or an ideal match for restoring a period pink bathroom fixture from the late 1940s through the 1950s.
