Fès Céladon Hand-Painted Ceramic Drum 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 soft, fresh and quietly elegant.

The Fès Céladon Basin is painted in pale celadon green on bright white. Sweeping tulip blooms, curling tendrils and scrolling leaves flow around the inside and outside of the bowl in a loose, calligraphic rhythm. Fine celadon lines run around the base, and a glossy celadon rim frames the design, keeping the look light and airy.

Every stroke is painted by hand, so the pattern has a natural movement and subtle irregularity that printed ceramics can't match. No two basins are quite the same.

The straight-sided drum shape sits above the counter, so the painted exterior is always on show. It pairs well with polished chrome or brushed nickel tapware, and with brushed brass for a warmer look. White stone, cream marble, limestone and travertine benchtops suit it, as do white or soft plastered walls. It works in coastal, Hamptons, Scandinavian, Mediterranean and light contemporary interiors, and gives a calm, spa-like feel to a powder room, ensuite or beach house.

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.
