Travertine forms in mineral-rich hot springs, and the layers it builds up over time give the stone its warm beige and cream tones, its light and dark bands and its slightly earthy texture. Each sink is carved individually from its own block, so no two share the same pattern. It measures 20 inches wide, 30 inches long and 8 inches high, with a 1.5 inch drain hole, and it is designed to hang on the wall or to sit on top of a vanity. The shape is a plain rectangle with a deep basin, modern in outline, with a rustic character that comes from the stone itself rather than from added decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eWarm beige, honed and filled\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eThe finish is honed and filled. Honing leaves the stone smooth and matte rather than glossy, and filling closes many of the natural holes that travertine forms, while some of the stone's earthy texture still shows through. The result is a surface that is comfortable to touch and has visual depth without shine. The basin is 8 inches high, which gives generous depth for daily washing in a sink that does not take up much wall. Travertine is a varied stone, and the signature light and dark variations are part of what sets real travertine apart from a uniform surface. Moderate color variation from piece to piece is expected, so the exact tone, banding and markings of each sink will differ from the next. That is the nature of a sink carved from a single block of natural stone, and it is why each one is slightly different on arrival.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHoned and filled\u003c\/strong\u003e A smooth, matte surface with the natural holes of the travertine filled.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeep basin\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 inches high, for comfortable everyday washing in a compact footprint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eOff the floor, or on a vanity\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eHung on the wall, the sink leaves the floor beneath it open. That makes a small room look larger, removes the base of a vanity or pedestal where dust, hair and water spots collect, and makes the floor easier to clean. A wall-mounted sink is also not tied to a standard vanity height: It can be set lower for children or higher for a tall adult, and an open floor below gives better access for a wheelchair user or anyone with limited mobility. The same sink can instead sit on top of a vanity, where it reads as a carved stone basin on the counter. It suits powder rooms, guest baths and primary baths, in contemporary, rustic or minimalist rooms alike. The 20 by 30 inch footprint gives practical counter-like space around the basin.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e 20\" W × 30\" L × 8\" H, solid beige travertine.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrain\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5\" drain hole for standard drain fittings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eBlock the wall before mounting\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eSolid travertine is heavy, so a wall-mounted installation needs solid backing. Blocking should be fitted between the studs at the mounting height, which is far simpler while the wall is open, and the sink is then hung on brackets fixed into that blocking. Decide on the mounting height early, together with the faucet: a wall-mounted faucet needs its supply lines run inside the wall to match the basin, and a deck faucet needs its position settled before the stone is fixed. If the sink sits on a vanity instead, the top must be flat, level and strong enough to carry the stone, and the sink is set in silicone. A professional installer is recommended for the weight and to line up the drain and supply lines cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we chose it\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarved from one block\u003c\/strong\u003e Each sink is carved from a single piece of travertine, with no seams to open up over time.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDevelops a patina\u003c\/strong\u003e Travertine matures with use, gaining a soft patina over the years in a damp bathroom.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade to order\u003c\/strong\u003e Each sink is made to order, with custom sizes and finishes on request.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \n\u003ch3\u003eMade to order\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eThis sink is made to order on two schedules: the 3 to 4 week option ships sooner, while the 8 to 14 week option is the lower-priced choice.

How often it is resealed depends on use and exposure to water.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"stonetiledepot","offers":[{"title":"3-4 Weeks \/ (W)20\" (L)30\" (H)8\" \/ Honed-Filled","offer_id":50674583601345,"sku":"NTRVS143","price":2172.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8-14 Weeks \/ (W)20\" (L)30\" (H)8\" \/ Honed-Filled","offer_id":50674583634113,"sku":"NTRVS143SO","price":1571.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0873\/7875\/5777\/files\/walnut-travertine-wall-mount-sink-W20xL30xH8-polished-with-backsplash-roomscene.jpg?v=1790876966","url":"https:\/\/homeraus.com\/products\/wall-mount-beige-travertine-bathroom-sink-20x30x8-handcrafted","provider":"Homeraus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
