If you're seeking a way to blend rustic warmth with modern elegance in your kitchen, there’s no feature quite like the farmhouse sink. At Eridanus Bath, our collection of farmhouse sinks combines classic aesthetics, durable materials, and functional design to elevate both form and utility in your home.
What Makes a Farmhouse Sink Special
A farmhouse sink (also known as an apron-front sink) stands apart in several ways:
Apron-front design: The front panel—or “apron”—extends beyond the edge of the surrounding cabinetry, creating a striking focal point.
Large basin capacity: Deep and wide bowls make cleaning large pots, pans, and even baking sheets easier.
Material variety: You’ll find farmhouse sinks crafted from fireclay, porcelain, stainless steel, copper, or composite materials. Each has its own look, performance, and maintenance profile.
Timeless appeal: Rooted in traditional farmhouse and cottage-style design, this sink style works beautifully with modern, rustic, and transitional aesthetics.
Choosing the Right Farmhouse Sink for You
When shopping for a farmhouse sink, these are the key factors to consider:
Feature Why It Matters
Material Fireclay and porcelain offer that timeless, white, glossy look; stainless steel gives a more modern, industrial feel; copper adds warmth and patina over time.
Size / Basin Depth A deeper, wider bowl holds more and reduces splashes. Make sure it fits your cabinet opening and countertop layout.
Configuration (single / double bowl) Single bowls maximize space for large items. Double bowls allow more versatility if you wash and prep simultaneously.
Mounting style Most farmhouse sinks are front-apron and undermount, but some apron-fronts can be fitted differently depending on cabinetry.
Drain placement Centered, rear, or offset drains affect plumbing and under-sink storage.

Faucet choice: Bridge or pot filler-style faucets enhance the period look; sleek gooseneck designs suit transitional and modern kitchens.

Hardware & accents: Matte black hardware, aged bronze, or polished nickel can help tie together your sink style with the rest of the decor.

Rinse after each use to prevent stains
Use non-abrasive cleaners for fireclay or porcelain
