Finding the Right Stone-sinks for You
Antique and vintage stone sinks bring a touch of nature to your home.
A stone sink can be used as a functional statement piece to complement your kitchen decor. In your bathroom, a stone sink can add a rustic flourish and will fit in nicely if the rest of your furniture is characterized by natural textures, unfinished lines and neutral colors. It can also present a nice contrast if your space is more city than country. Part of the appeal of these sinks is that no two are alike. The difference in the stone’s coloration, pitting and veining will ensure that each piece is unique.
Stone sinks are typically carved from a single solid slab, and they come in all kinds of materials, including marble, soapstone, travertine and more. It’s important to note that all types of stone sinks will stain, so you’ll want to be careful with colored liquids around your sink. Make a habit of wiping your stone sink with a soft cloth after every use to prevent mineral deposits from forming. (Your stone sink is a “no steel wool” zone.) For regular cleaning, you’ll want to use a mild dish soap instead of an abrasive cleaner to prevent scratching your sink.
Stone sinks are durable and versatile. They’re a sensible addition to your already stylish kitchen, they will pair well with the dark walnut cabinets at your bar and will be a natural fit in more ways than one for the serene oasis you’ve made of the upstairs bathroom.
Explore an extensive collection of vintage, new and antique stone sinks on 1stDibs.
