Fès Mimosa 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 light, bright and full of warmth.
The Fès Mimosa Basin is painted in saffron-yellow on bright white. Rows of overlapping feather-like scales rise from the drain to the rim, each with a delicate star-burst at its centre. A ring of smaller dotted petals circles the drain, and a fine dotted border runs just inside the rim. A wide white rim frames the design, so the look stays fresh and airy.
Every line is painted by hand, so the pattern has a gentle rhythm and subtle irregularity that printed ceramics can't match. No two basins are quite the same.
The wide, flared bowl sits above the counter. It pairs well with brushed brass or aged gold tapware, and with cream marble, limestone and travertine benchtops and warm plastered walls. It's also bright and cheerful against white. It suits Mediterranean, coastal, farmhouse, Scandinavian and light Moroccan interiors, and brings a sunny touch to a powder room, guest bathroom or holiday home.
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 a 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. Waste, pop-up and tapware are sold separately. Installation by a licensed plumber is recommended.
