Silver Marble Round Vessel Bathroom Sink 15.5 Inch

Sirius Silver marble, a round vessel bowl

This round vessel sink is carved from a single block of Sirius Silver marble quarried in Turkey. The stone is a cool gray with natural veining and organic patterns formed over millions of years, and the mineral inclusions and surface character of each block cannot be reproduced. The bowl measures 15.5 inches in diameter and 6 inches high, and it is sculpted individually, so no two sinks are identical.

Silver-gray marble, polished

The sink is polished inside and out, a finish that catches the light and brings out the gray veining. Smooth, curved edges leave no corners for dirt to gather and keep daily cleaning simple. Because the bowl is carved from one block, there are no joints: the stone runs continuously from rim to base, which keeps the piece structurally sound. The bowl has no overflow. Since each sink is hand-carved, slight variations in color and finish between pieces are natural, and moderate variation is normal for this marble. Over the years the stone develops a soft patina.

• Polished inside and out A glossy surface that brings out the gray veining of the marble.
• Curved edges A rounded rim and bowl, with no corners for dirt to collect.

A compact bowl for the counter

At 15.5 inches across, the bowl is compact enough for a guest powder room and still comfortable for daily use in a primary bath. The cool gray suits a modern bathroom. Natural marble handles everyday changes in water temperature, and once sealed its dense structure slows water absorption. The 4 cm drain hole takes standard plumbing fittings without modification.

• Size 15.5" diameter × 6" H, solid Sirius Silver marble.
• Drain 4 cm drain hole for standard fittings.

On the counter, over a drain hole

The sink sits above the counter, so only a drain hole is needed. Solid marble is heavy, though, so the counter must be flat, level and strong. The hole is cut to line up with the 4 cm drain, and the bowl is set in silicone. Because it stands 6 inches above the counter, the faucet has to reach over the rim: a tall deck-mounted vessel faucet or a wall-mounted spout. A professional installer is recommended.

Why we chose it

• One block Carved from a single piece of marble, with no joints or seams.
• Lasts for decades Properly cared for, a marble sink commonly lasts 20 to 50 years in a home.
• Made to order Each sink is made to order, with custom sizes and finishes on request.

Made to order

This sink is made to order on one of two schedules: the 3 to 4 week option ships sooner, while the 8 to 14 week option is the lower-priced choice. Both are the same 15.5 inch polished bowl. It can also be carved in a custom size or finish. To start a custom order, contact us with the measurements of the counter.

Care

Sirius Silver is a porous calcite marble, so acids such as lemon or vinegar can etch the polished surface. Sealing makes it resistant to stains from toothpaste, soap and cosmetics, and how often it is resealed depends on use, typically once or twice a year.
