Unlike drop-in sinks, vessel bathroom sinks are elevated basins that appear to be resting on top of bathroom counters. Stylistically, vessel sinks carry a rustic sense of the past—harkening to a time when all sinks were basins on top of a vanity—but the use of modern materials works with most contemporary interior trends today. Their rounded shape is highly functional, as the design frees up space around the sides of the elevated basin, which helps it stand out as a focal feature of any bathroom design. If you prefer straight lines in your decor, consider a rectangular vessel sink as a modern alternative to a bowl-shaped sink.


Because these sinks are not cut into the countertop the way drop-in sinks are, they offer more flexibility if you choose to change your style later. Installation usually only requires cutting a small hole for the drain pipe. A vessel sink often has a separate faucet detached from the basin for both stylistic and practical uses, giving you another design element to play with. Whether you have a large countertop, are strapped for space, or have a luxurious powder room you want to upgrade, browse shops on Etsy for a vessel sink that’s right for you.

One of the most striking features of the vessel sink is its choice of material. Most vessel sinks are made from glass, stone, metal, or ceramics. Each material brings its own characteristics to bathroom settings and complements various interior styles differently.


  • Stone vessel sinks bring natural warmth and serenity to your bathroom. They are known for their durability and high resistance to chipping, denting, and rust. Most stone vessel sinks are made from granite or marble that hold up well against heat but are treated with a sealant to protect against bacteria and staining. Heavy use can wear down this protective film faster, so stone vessel sinks are generally better suited for less busy bathrooms.
  • Glass vessel sinks could be clear, tinted, or frosted glass and are eye-catching. Glass is easy to clean and maintain. It provides a visual line through the sink to the countertop, making your space feel more spacious and open.
  • Porcelain vessel sinks are often handmade and can be glazed with all sorts of colors and patterns to make your sink pop as a stand-out feature of your bathroom.
  • Metal vessel sinks are often forged from bronze or hammered copper, handmade by metalsmiths. These sinks can reflect light, making them look light despite being a very durable, solid material and adding a stunning gold or amber tint against your countertop.
  • Ceramic vessel sinks may be dyed, carved, and molded into unique shapes that look very vintage or Mediterranean. Ceramic sinks are known for standing up to heavy use. If you have a high-traffic bathroom, ceramic might be your winner.
