Natural wood, one piece at a time

Wood grain, knots, edge contours, and color naturally vary from piece to piece. Product images show the expected character rather than an identical grain pattern.

General care

These products are not waterproof. Their durable wood-and-finish construction is designed to handle ordinary accidental spills when liquid is wiped up promptly. Avoid standing water, soaking, submersion, and harsh cleaners.

SKU: MPK-VS-05288-01

Dimensions & assembly

Exact dimensions for each size are listed on the option you select above. Most pieces arrive fully assembled; wall-mounted designs include hardware and a template. Measure doorways and stair turns before ordering — most pieces pass a standard 32-inch doorway.

Care: wipe with a soft, dry cloth and oil the grain once or twice a year to keep the surface nourished.

Shipping & returns

Your piece ships free in a protective wooden crate. Freight delivery comes with a scheduled window and tracking; white-glove service — carried inside, placed, packaging removed — is available at checkout.

Returns: 30 days from payment. Pieces need to be unused and in original condition — we arrange the freight pickup and walk you through repacking. Damaged or defective on arrival? We repair, replace or refund at no cost. Made-to-order pieces can be changed or cancelled while the build has not started.

Solid walnut · Vessel sink

Water, running over walnut

The piece

Plate I
Plate II

A basin carved the way water moves.

Each sink starts as one block of solid walnut. The carver follows the flow of water rather than a fixed pattern, so every bowl curves differently; then the surface is hand-sanded and sealed inside and out with a water-resistant, non-toxic finish made for daily use — one solid block, with no glued staves to seep at a seam.

The doubt is fair — a wooden sink sounds like it should swell and split. This one is a single dense block sealed like a boat hull, so hot and cold water run over it daily without reaching the wood beneath. On the counter it changes the temperature of the whole room: chocolate-brown grain where cold porcelain used to be, and the detail guests mention on the way out the door.

  • Sealed inside and out for hot and cold daily use
  • Sits on any flat counter, no recess to cut
  • Pre-drilled for a standard drain fitting
  • Hand-carved curves make every basin one of one
  • Suits farmhouse and modern bathrooms alike

It fits real homes.

Warm water, dark grain

Warm water, dark grain

The first hand-wash of a winter morning, steam rising off walnut instead of ceramic. The grain shifts under the moving water like something alive, and the rim is warm to the touch where tile and porcelain never are.

The double take

The double take

A guest reaches for the tap, stops, and touches the rim first — is that actually wood? Every powder-room visit ends with the same question carried back to the dinner table.

The last light off

The last light off

Face washed, taps closed, one low 2700K light catching the bowl's curve on the way out. The house's smallest nightly ritual gets the house's most personal object.

Teak, up close.

No two boards alike

Straight grain broken by curls, waves, and darker mineral streaks sweeps around the bowl — chocolate tones from the tree itself, never from a stain, and no two basins ever repeat.

No two boards alike

A hand-rubbed depth

Walnut polishes to a smooth, lustrous depth, and the sealed rim still pulls a hand across it almost involuntarily — cool and glassy under wet fingers, warm and soft under dry.

A hand-rubbed depth

Gunstock toughness

At about 1,010 on the Janka scale, the walnut walls shrug off the daily knock of a dropped bottle or a ring set down hard, without the brittle chipping a thin ceramic glaze suffers.

Gunstock toughness

Mellows, never fades

Out of direct sun, walnut settles into a warmer, more personal patina each year of use, softening in tone rather than tiring; a bright window would slowly lighten it, so a shaded wall keeps it deep.

Mellows, never fades

From plank to piece.

The wood selection

The wood selection

Walnut blocks are chosen one at a time for sound, unbroken figure, then dried until the moisture meter says done so the bowl will not check after sealing. Stock with checks or dull grain never becomes a basin.

The shaping process

The shaping process

The bowl is carved slightly proud of its final curve, each one following the block's own grain rather than a fixed template.

The hand refinement

The hand refinement

Inside and rim are sanded through successive grits until wet hands find no edge, only curve.

The final inspection

The final inspection

The waterproof sealer goes on in thin coats, worked hardest into the end grain. The maker checks the bowl, drain fit, and finish before the sink ships.

One maker follows each piece from rough plank to the final coat of oil, and signs off before it is crated.

The Timber Vintique workshop

No two boards alike

The grain that arrives is yours alone.

  1. Every board is cut from a different tree — the photos here are a reference, not a promise.
  2. Your piece is photographed in the workshop before it ships, so you see your exact grain.
  3. Small knots and mineral streaks come with real wood. We leave them in.

Delivery, done properly.

White-glove option

Choose white-glove and the crew brings the piece inside, places it in the room, and removes every bit of packaging.

Crated for freight

Each piece travels in its own wooden crate with corner protection, built to cross the country without a scuff.

Scheduled window

You get a delivery appointment and tracking — not a truck that shows up unannounced.

Honest returns

30 days from payment. If it isn't right — unused, in original condition — we arrange the freight pickup. Made-to-order terms are stated up front.

Questions customers usually ask

Can a wooden sink actually hold water?
Each vessel sink is carved from a single piece of dense hardwood and sealed inside and out with a waterproof marine-grade finish made for daily running water — the same category of seal that keeps boat interiors sound. Being one block, there is no glued seam to open.
What sizes work with my counter?
Diameters and depths are made to order within plumbing-standard limits. Tell us your counter depth and faucet reach, and we confirm a size that splashes less and drains well before we carve it.
What does installation require?
Sinks arrive pre-drilled for a standard 1.75-inch drain and sit on any flat counter. A plumber completes the drain fitting; no special or proprietary parts are needed.
How do I keep the seal healthy?
Rinse and towel the basin after heavy use and skip abrasive cleaners, which scour any finish. Reapply the recommended sealer on schedule — yearly for most bathrooms — and the bowl stays waterproof; the cured finish is non-toxic for daily hand use.
How is a sink packed?
Every sink is made to order and ships foam-cradled in a rigid double-walled box. Tracking arrives by email the day it leaves the workshop; check it on arrival and photograph any crush before signing.
Can you drill the holes to match my fixtures?
Yes. Share your faucet and drain hole measurements when you order, and we drill the basin to match your hardware exactly before it ships — no on-site guesswork for your plumber.
Won't a solid block of walnut split as it dries out?
That is the fear with any thick block, and the answer is in the drying. This walnut is hand-picked by selectors with thirty years at the lumber stacks, then dried through twenty days of controlled kiln heat, so the moisture leaves slowly and the block does its moving in the kiln, not on the counter. By the time it is carved and sealed the wood has settled, and that heat has ended any insects or eggs inside it.
