This sturdy sink is hammered by hand and crafted from 18 gauge stainless steel. The sink is made by hand and made by artisans. The high shine adds a touch of drama to your bath or powder room. This sink can be top-mounted or under-mounted. This sink will naturally oxidize if left untreated, but a quick polish will bring back its luster. Like the brightwork on a ship, this sink is the highlight of your vanity. Slight variations may exist.
