Choose the basin size
Confirm the outside diameter, bowl depth, counter footprint, drain location, and available space around the sink. Allow room for toiletries and comfortable handwashing. On small vanities, mark the full footprint with tape before ordering.
Coordinate vanity and faucet height
The counter may need to be lower than for an undermount sink so the bowl rim remains comfortable. A wall-mounted faucet can keep the deck clear; a tall deck faucet must have enough height and reach. Aim the water stream toward the drain to reduce splashing.
What makes hammered brass distinctive
Hammering catches light and helps disguise small water marks. Unlacquered brass can deepen and develop patina, while a protected finish may remain more consistent. Review the exact finish description before choosing a cleaning method.
