Selecting a kitchen or bathroom sink use to be easy. There were just a few large companies selling ceramic, enameled steel, cast iron and stainless steel sinks. In the past decade, there has been an explosion of new products in the sink category and a growing demand for hand crafted and custom work. There have been several \"new\" sink mediums gaining recent acceptance - glass, various stones, brass, copper, and even wood. This article will focus on copper sinks and what to look for before making your purchase.
Now it’s time to install the new sink into the counter. With the sink upside-down, gently squeeze a line of silicone caulk around the outer edge. Flip the sink over and carefully place it in position. Measure carefully to make sure that it’s parallel with the front edge of the counter, and adjust if necessary before the caulk sets. If there are any mounting clips or other bracing required for your sink, install them now.
Fireclay kitchen sinks, another sink in the luxury kitchen type, is made of porcelain that is thicker, denser and heavier than the regular china clay.

It has a bright, shining and attractive appearance and will liven up the entire kitchen. They will go well with all types of countertops and is very easy to maintain compared to other stone or ceramic kitchen sinks.

Since 1873 Kohler has produced some of the most beautiful stainless steel kitchen sinks available in the market. Many critics even say that Kohler sinks are made with the consumer in mind first, since they offer the most functional sinks for any type of household. For example, one model that has earned the praise of many vendors is the Indio single-bowl model K-6410-1, which is an unusual under the counter stainless sink that places the faucet configuration to the far-right of the sink, not at the expected top side of the sink, allowing for more working space and clean lines.
