Are Fireclay Sinks Durable?

Fireclay sinks are sometimes confused with porcelain or ceramic, and this leads to misconceptions about its durability.

Each sink is uniquely handcrafted using time-tested techniques over three hundred years old. Moreover, all our brands offer guarantees of the quality of their product.

Modern Glazing Technology and the Solid Fireclay make for a strong finish
