{"product_id":"hand-carved-antique-marble-wash-basin-1","title":"Hand-Carved Antique Marble Vessel Sink","description":"\u003cp\u003eA basin like this was cut from a single block of stone rather than built up from pieces, because a joint is the first thing to fail where water stands. It was heavy enough that it was set down once and stayed where it was put, which is why so many of them have outlasted the houses they were cut for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe outside was left exactly as the chisel finished it, tool marks running in rows across every face, while the inside has worn smooth and dished slightly from a century of hands, laundry and water. A lug stands proud at one end where the block was left thicker, the grip for shifting a basin far too heavy to lift by its rim. Rust-coloured staining has bled up through the floor where iron in the stone met water and never fully dried, and one corner carries an old loss that has weathered back to the tone of everything around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday it takes a drain and works as a vessel sink above a counter, holds a planting in a courtyard, or simply stands on a base as it is. A basin this heavy settles a room by weight alone, and that is the one thing a newly cut stone sink cannot do.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kasa Petra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47117254426785,"sku":"KP-0015","price":2450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/2346\/9217\/files\/Lokasyon2000pxKare510.jpg?v=1787575325","url":"https:\/\/kasapetra.com\/products\/hand-carved-antique-marble-wash-basin-1","provider":"Kasa Petra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
