Washbasins Collection
freestanding barrel washbasin
A barrel form hollowed from a single grey marble block — ancient vessel form, modern function. Barile speaks to the oldest tradition of stone carving: the act of finding a void within the solid.

Barile draws its silhouette from wine barrels and Roman cisterns — the gently curving walls that have held liquid for millennia. In grey marble, the form becomes monumental yet intimate. The outer surface is left with a subtle honed texture, while the interior basin is polished to a mirror finish for ease of use.

The contrast between the matte exterior and the polished interior basin creates a sensory dialogue — rough to the touch on the outside, silk-smooth within. Water pools and drains through a concealed centre outlet, maintaining the clean, unbroken lines of the form.

Barile is carved from Grigio Carnico. The material is hand-selected for the quality of its veining, surface character, and geological depth. Contact us to begin your commission.

A concealed centre drain with a click-clack mechanism sits flush with the basin floor. The plumbing connection exits through the base and can be configured for floor or wall drainage.
Yes. The exterior receives a soft honed finish that highlights the stone's texture without the reflectivity of polish. This creates a beautiful contrast with the mirror-polished interior basin.
Barile is designed as a freestanding piece. However, we can engineer a wall-bracket version upon request, though the proportions are most striking when the full barrel form is visible.
All our washbasins receive a professional-grade impregnating sealant that penetrates the stone without altering its appearance. This protects against water staining and soap residue while maintaining the natural feel.
Every Barile is carved from a single block selected for its character. Inquire to discuss stone selection, finish, and plumbing configuration.
