Black Marble Sinks

Black stone hides nothing. Every tool mark, every soft edge and every inconsistency in the polish shows, which is why a black marble basin is the hardest thing in our catalogue to carve well and the fastest way to judge a workshop.

Most of this collection is Toros Black, a dense Turkish marble with fine white veining that reads almost solid from a distance and reveals its movement close up. The remainder are natural dark marbles selected for consistency of tone rather than dramatic figure.

Form

The round vessel pieces — including the shallow-profile Black Marble Shallow Round Sink and the Bros Black Marble Sink — sit between 15 and 17 inches and are turned from a single block. The rectangular pieces run longer and suit a wider vanity or a trough-style layout. The Geometric Black Marble Sink is faceted rather than turned, cut flat-plane by hand. The Black Pedestal Marble Sink is the only floor-standing piece in the collection: a conical column and bowl carved as one, which removes the need for a vanity entirely.

Finish and upkeep

Black marble is supplied honed or polished depending on the piece. A polished surface holds a deeper colour but shows limescale sooner in hard-water areas; honed forgives more and can be refreshed with a stone-safe cleaner. Either way, avoid bleach and acidic descalers, which will etch the surface permanently and leave a pale bloom that cannot be wiped away.

Weights and exact dimensions are on every product page. Shipping within the United States is free and each basin travels crated. Production times vary by piece and are stated on the listing.
