    Hi, Have you checked with Urban Ore? 🤔

    Yours, Larry

    Ps, plan B, crazy glue 🤪

    Does that cover the tube between the tank and the bowl? I'm not positive but that bowl looks like a 50's or 60's commercial bowl.

    Well, might not be the same finish

    It's not easy to find as I'm sure you already know.

    If esthetics are important, you might need to pretty up the piping if you can't find a replacement.

    The one you have is fixable. Some phenoseal for the crack and some color coating similar to what a dentist does to match the pigment could do the trick.

    Maybe some linen or biscuit-colored caulk? Something that might match and come close to hiding the crack possibly?

    If you glue the crack back together and reinforce it with a strut of some sort on the back you can paint in the crack in such a way that it is barely noticable, especially down where it will be.

    I checked with The Sink Factory and they had nothing. Urban Ore is a good suggestion.

    @mattmia2 The date stamped inside the tank lid is 1928. And yes, that's the cover for the chrome pipe between the tank and the bowl.

    @dko Couldn't find one on eBay.

    I’m a homeowner so my experience is limited, but I had good luck with this company that finds and sells antique plumbing fixtures. They are in California, but ship everywhere.
