Classic kitchen sink in fireclay with overflow from Shaws. Shaws has been producing kitchen sinks since 1897 and is considered one of Europe’s true quality manufacturers. This sink is compatible with Shaws’ extra-large basket strainer with porcelain insert (sold separately; see Related Products below).
All Shaws fireclay is handmade and therefore has a dimensional tolerance of +/- 3%. We strongly recommend having the sink on-site before cutting the countertop opening. There are no templates available in advance for these sinks. The sink should also be supported underneath by the cabinet frame.
The fireclay material is fully solid, unlike typical sanitary porcelain which consists of two thin layers with air in between. The solid construction makes the sink very sturdy and quite heavy. Therefore, it is important to ensure a stable structure to support the sink itself.
