Join our revolution in bathroom aesthetics, where we fuse function with art. Inspired by the thousand-year legacy of the Ottoman art of Çini, we seamlessly blend ancestral art with contemporary interior design to make every day feel like a spa experience. The age-old technique of Çini is celebrated for its unparalleled durability in ceramic painting. The testament to its enduring allure lies in Turkish Hammams, where Ottoman çini pieces, over 500 years old, continue to showcase their original vibrant hues.
Each sink is custom-made upon order. Due to handcrafting and the mixing of Çini paints, each item will be unique, and hence, will slighyly differ from the image in patterns and colors.

Molding: Artisans skillfully sculpt high-quality natural clay, shaping the sink with expert precision. The unique form of each basin is achieved either by hand or with a potter's wheel.
Drying: The sculpted sink is air-dried at room temperature. This process can range from a few days to a week, preparing the sink for its first firing by removing residual moisture.
First Firing (Biscuit Firing): The sink is hardened through firing in a kiln at temperatures between 1,650°F (900°C) and 1,980°F (1,080°C). This transforms the clay into a robust ceramic material.
Glazing: Artisans apply a layer of liquid glass or glaze to the sink's surface, creating a protective layer that makes the sink more resistant to stains and wear.
Decoration: The glaze serves as a canvas for our artisans, who hand-paint unique Çini designs onto the basin using vibrant underglazes. Each design is a distinct expression of the artist's vision.
Second Firing (Glost Firing): After the painting, the sink undergoes a second firing. This process melts the glaze, setting the hand-painted designs and creating a glossy, smooth, durable surface.
Cooling and Finishing: The ceramic sink is then cooled down to room temperature, a process that may take over a day. Any final refinements are made, and the sink is inspected thoroughly for quality before it's ready for installation.
This sink is more than just a bathroom fixture—it's a functional piece of art that brings the rich history and exquisite craftsmanship of Çini artisanship to your home. Invest in this magnificent, handmade ceramic sink and transform your bathroom into an artful sanctuary.
