wash basin
Hand-cleaning vessel
A wash basin is a bowl or sink for washing hands and face, typically found in bathrooms.
The term is somewhat old-fashioned; sink or bathroom sink is more common in American English, while washbasin (one word) remains current in British English.
There was a wash basin and pitcher on the dresser.
