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.
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 will confirm a size that splashes less and drains well.
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 parts are needed.
How do I keep the seal healthy?
Rinse and towel the basin after heavy use and avoid abrasive cleaners. Reapply the recommended sealer on schedule — yearly for most bathrooms — to keep the bowl waterproof.
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 the sink leaves the workshop.
Can a wood sink really handle water every day?
Spas and steam rooms have run teak wet for decades — its natural oils and silica resist water before any finish does. Ours adds a waterproof sealer inside and out, cured between coats, over a blank kiln-dried for twenty days so the bowl finished its moving before it ever held water. Wipe it dry after heavy use, skip harsh cleaners, and refresh the sealer as the care card directs — a ten-minute job, not a project.
What faucet and drain hardware do I need?
A vessel-height faucet — tall deck-mount or wall-mount — and a vessel drain without overflow, since a carved bowl has no overflow channel. Check the listed drain opening against your hardware before you order; most standard pop-up vessel drains fit. Swapping in from a builder drop-in is a one-Saturday job for a confident DIYer, or a short visit for a plumber.
