Artisan Craft
Each sink begins with artisans hand-forming clay into a balanced oval bowl and refining the profile by hand. After the first firing, a traditional tin glaze is applied to create a smooth ivory surface for the artwork. Painters then use mineral pigments to layer leaves, accents, and borders with expressive, carefully controlled brushstrokes. A final high-temperature firing fuses the decoration into the glaze, ensuring lasting color, sheen, and durability.
Function and Style
The smooth oval bowl offers comfortable daily use, with a glossy glazed surface that lets water flow easily toward the drain and makes cleaning simple. Its leaf-centered design feels refined yet organic, ideal for Spanish Revival, rustic Mexican, Mediterranean, and nature-inspired bathrooms that welcome pattern with a calm, natural rhythm.

Pair this leaf design sink with stone or tile countertops, warm wood vanities, and plaster or stucco walls to echo its earthy tones. It also complements wrought iron mirrors, bronze or copper faucets, and handwoven textiles, tying together natural materials and artisanal ceramics in both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Installation Tips
Place the sink upside down on your countertop and carefully start by tracing rim placement so the cutout follows the oval shape. After cutting opening to match the outline, dry fitting ensures the bowl sits level and the rim contacts the surface evenly before you apply a continuous bead of silicone, complete the silicone setting, and wipe away any excess sealant.
Maintenance
Clean the glazed surface with mild soap and water using a soft cloth, then rinse and dry to prevent residue buildup. Use no abrasives or harsh chemicals so you protect the glaze, keep the leaf brushwork crisp, and preserve the warm color harmony for years.
