Fès Céleste Hand-Painted Ceramic Basin

This basin is handmade in Fès, a city known for centuries of ceramic craftsmanship, and each one is shaped and painted by artisans. It's fresh, light and calm.

The Fès Céleste Basin is painted in soft cornflower blue on bright white. Hundreds of concentric arches overlap like ripples or fish scales and fan out from the drain, getting larger towards the rim. The pattern continues around the outside of the bowl, and a clean white rim keeps the look crisp and coastal.

Every arch is painted by hand, so the pattern moves gently and has small irregularities that printed ceramics can't match. No two basins are quite the same.

The flared bowl sits above the counter and shows off the painted interior. It pairs well with brushed brass or aged gold tapware, and just as well with chrome or brushed nickel. It suits cream marble, limestone and travertine benchtops, white or warm plastered walls, and timber or whitewashed vanities. It works in coastal, Hamptons, Mediterranean, Greek-island and modern farmhouse interiors, and gives an ensuite, powder room or beach house a relaxed, breezy feel.

Made to order in your size

Each basin is made to order. Sizes start at 20 cm in diameter for compact powder rooms and guest bathrooms, and go up to larger statement sizes for main bathrooms and double vanities. Tell us your preferred diameter and your benchtop layout, and we'll confirm the dimensions, lead time and freight before production begins.

Care

Clean with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals and scouring pads, which can dull the glaze over time.

Please note

Each basin is hand-thrown and hand-painted, so slight variations in pattern, colour, glaze and dimensions are natural to the craft and part of its charm. The waste, pop-up and tapware are sold separately. Installation by a licensed plumber is recommended.
