Contemporary French limestone stand-alone sink

This type of shallow sink is called a "pile Provençale", a traditional Provence used to be found in the farmhouses' kitchens in Provence. In order to save running water which was quite rare then, the washing-up was made in a separate bucket and not directly into the sink - and this is why these traditional sinks were so shallow.

Here, the sink has been carved directly into the stone in a large monolithic stone of 150 cm long by 90 cm wide. This massive stone is supported by a pair of straight and sturdy legs.
The stone we used to carve this kitchen sink is the stone of Avy (a firm and frost-resistant white limestone extracted in our French quarries).

This sink can be installed both indoors (bathroom, kitchen, laundry room ...) or outdoors as part of a summer kitchen or in a veggie garden.

It can be modified according to your wishes and dimensions.
