Artisan Craft
Each sink begins with artisans hand-forming clay into a balanced oval bowl and refining the rim and walls by eye. After an initial firing, a traditional tin glaze is applied to create a bright, receptive surface. Skilled painters then use mineral pigments to decorate each petal section with flowers, leaves, and geometric fillers, working carefully around the mandala layout. A final high-temperature firing fuses the glazes, locking in color and giving the piece lasting strength for daily use.
Function and Style
The mandala layout guides the eye naturally toward the drain, while the smooth glazed bowl keeps everyday use comfortable and easy to clean. This sink works beautifully in Spanish Revival, rustic Mexican, Mediterranean, and eclectic bathrooms that welcome bold pattern and color but still value symmetry and balance.

Installation Tips
Start by placing the sink upside down on your countertop and carefully tracing the rim so your cutout follows the oval shape. After cutting the opening, dry fitting ensures the bowl sits level and the rim contacts the surface evenly before you run a bead of silicone, complete the silicone setting, and wipe away any excess sealant.
Maintenance
Use mild soap and water with a soft cloth to clean the glazed surface, then rinse and dry to prevent residue buildup. Avoid abrasives and harsh cleaners so you protect the glaze, preserve the fine mandala details, and keep the colors vibrant for years.
