Glass Basin Sinks

Filed Under Sinks | Leave a Comment

Glass basin sinks are the epitome of bathroom coolness.  There aren’t many things that you can do a bathroom to make an impact quite like you can with a glass basin sink.  In this post I want to show you how to get gallery quality glass sinks without spending gallery prices.

Many of the larger sink companies (like Kohler) have started making glass basin sinks (also called vessel sinks) once the trend began to catch on.  The thing is, when you get a designer name you get designer prices!  What do you do instead?  Find a local glass artist.

Handmade glass basin sinks are going to be much higher quality than a store bought one will, and you can have it custom made just for you.  Each of these are going to be one of a kind and handmade through a process called fused glass that melts glass into a mold in a kiln.  Different colors and shapes can be melted into the glass.  This creates a true work of art in your bathroom.

Local artists are usually more willing to work with you and your budget than a big name artist will.  Which means that you can get the exact sink that you want (created just for you) at a price that you can afford.

You might be thinking that a glass sink will break easily, but they are very strong.  These sinks are much thicker than your windows or drinking glasses and can withstand normal use.  You have to be very careful not to drop anything large into them, but for the most part they will last a very long time without any issues.  Ordering online from most artists will get you a shipping and workmanship defect warranty.

Glass basin sinks are the most striking addition you can make to your bathroom.  Spend some time cruising the local art scene or online to find the perfect glass sink for you!
