Unique Blue Glass Wash Basin Installation Type: Floor Mounted

A sink often called a sinker, washbowl, hand basin, washbasin, or simply basin, is a bowl-shaped plumbing device used for handwashing, dishwashing, and other tasks. Sinks have taps (faucets) that provide hot and cold water, as well as a spray feature for speedier rinsing. They also have a drain to collect used water, which may have a strainer and/or shut-off device as well as an overflow-prevention system. Sinks may also include a built-in soap dispenser. Many sinks are placed next to or inside a counter, especially in kitchens. Automatic faucets, which detect the user's hands moving beneath the tap and turn on the water, are available in some public restrooms. Solid-surface plastic materials allow sinks to be made of the same plastic material as the countertop. These sinks can then easily be glued to the underside of the countertop material and the joint sanded flat, creating the usually invisible joint and completely eliminating any dirt-catching seam between the sink and the countertop. In a similar fashion, for stainless steel, a sink may be welded into the countertop; the joint is then ground to create a finished, concealed appearance.
