Calacatta Marble Wall-Mount Sink

Calacatta Marble Wall-Mount Sink

Calacatta is not a single stone. It is a family of marbles from the same region of Italy, running from a bright white ground with clean grey veining through to the violet-veined Calacatta Viola. Because we buy at the block and cut every basin from one piece, the tone and the movement in your sink follow the block it came from. The photographs on this page show a recent example rather than a fixed pattern. If you need to match something specific, email us before ordering and we will send photographs of the block we are about to cut.

Mounted on the wall, the basin leaves the floor clear and puts the full length of the stone at eye level. The plain and fluted versions read very differently: plain keeps the veining uninterrupted across the front, while fluting breaks the light along the face and makes the piece feel more architectural.

Sizes and options

• 46 size combinations, from 16" wide up to 40" wide
• Depths of 14", 16" and 18"; basin heights of 6" and 8"
• Front profile: plain or fluted
• Drain opening 1.75" (4.5 cm), sized for standard US fittings
• Hand-polished finish, carved from a single block
• Made to order, production time 1 to 4 weeks

Choosing a size

Width is the decision most people get wrong. Measure the clear wall space first, subtract room for the tap if it is wall-mounted, and remember that a hung basin needs space below it for the trap. In a powder room, 16" to 20" is usually right. Over a 24" to 30" vanity run, a 24" or 26" basin sits comfortably without crowding the wall. Above 32" the piece becomes the focal point of the room and the wall has to carry it visually as well as structurally.

How it is made

We select blocks at the quarry ourselves rather than ordering finished slabs. Rough cutting is done on diamond wire and waterjet equipment in our own workshop in Denizli, Turkey, and every stage after that is by hand: hollowing, edge work, and polishing through several progressively finer passes. Nothing is subcontracted and no part of the finishing is outsourced.

Before you order

Plan the wall support before the sink arrives. Solid stone is considerably heavier than a ceramic basin of the same size and needs timber blocking between the studs. Wall mounting brackets are sold separately. We recommend an installer with solid stone experience. Custom widths and backsplash heights are possible; email us before ordering.

Living with it

Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner only. Acidic products, including vinegar, lemon and most limescale removers, will etch a polished marble surface. Reseal once a year. Color, veining and texture vary between blocks, which is inherent to natural stone and is not a fault.

Ordering and delivery

Free shipping within the United States, with 3 to 4 business days in transit once the piece leaves our warehouse. Total time to your door is the production time above plus transit. Full coverage marble and freight insurance can be added at checkout. Returns are accepted within 30 days under our refund policy: return shipping is the customer's responsibility and a 25% restocking fee applies. Any transit damage must be reported within 14 days of delivery.

The stone. Tones run white, purple and black. Because this is quarried stone rather than a manufactured surface, no two basins are identical — the photographs show a representative piece, not the exact one you will get. Carved from a single block of Calacatta marble in our Denizli workshop — no casting, no veneer, no resin filler.

Sizes. 30 sizes are made to order, from 16" to 40" wide, in 14" and 16" depths and 6" and 8" heights. Pick the width against your vanity, not against the room — a basin that overhangs its counter looks wrong from every angle.

Fitting it. Mounted off the wall, this basin leaves the floor clear and makes a narrow room feel wider. Plan the plumbing before the wall is closed up, and fix into solid framing.

What the photographs show. The frames here are interior shots. They tell you how the basin proportions against a vanity, a faucet and a mirror, which a plain-background photograph cannot.

Looking after it. Care is simple but specific: neutral cleaner only, no acid, no abrasive pad. Reseal with a breathable impregnating sealer once a year in a family bathroom.

Ordering. Priced $900 to $3,450 depending on size. Production time is 1–4 weeks. Shipping weight is roughly 110 lb, so it travels freight rather than parcel. Shipping is free within the United States from our Connecticut warehouse. Returns are accepted within 30 days under our Refund Policy.
