A guide to choosing a handmade washbasin: real dimensions, vanity unit height, materials, bathroom styles and how to care for hand-painted pieces.
Basins and hand-painted tiles
Pieces painted one by one: glazed ceramic washbasins and hand-decorated tiles, with the slightly irregular brushwork that sets hand-painting apart from print. In this section we explain how to choose them and how to combine them so that they do not compete with the rest of the bathroom or kitchen.

Hand-painted tiles: techniques, formats and a country house courtyard with Mod. Gamonal

Techniques, formats, collections and installation of hand-painted tiles, with a country house fountain finished in Mod. Gamonal.
What we cover here
- How to choose the washbasin for the type of bathroom: countertop, inset or used as a kitchen sink, with the dimensions and the waste outlet that determine the installation.
- Techniques and formats of hand-painted tiles, and how to tell them apart from a tile with a printed motif.
- How to combine them: if the floor is patterned, the painted piece works better against a plain background, and vice versa.
The rule that comes up in every project
Only one element in the space should carry a pattern. A hand-painted washbasin on a plain terracotta worktop stands out; the same washbasin against a patchwork zellige wall does not. It is the same rule we apply when combining a cement tile floor with a zellige wall.
The pieces available are listed under other products; if you are looking for a particular design or a colour from the chart, write to us and we will check at the workshop.
