Distinctive, Handcrafted Vanity Mounted Sinks

More from the Bathroom Remodeling Gallery

Having a good vanity in your bathroom is like having fine furniture on display. Some of the latest vanities to hit the market are at least worth a look. These vanities come in a variety of real wood types and have granite or marble tops, very much the top of the line. Plus, they have a double sink option and are handcrafted right down to the stenciling. As a result they’re not cheap. The cost is anywhere from $700 to $1,200 dollars. Of course, you can still go to your local home improvement store and pick up a nice vanity with real wood fronts and particle board, for right around $250 dollars.

The advantages of the vanity over the sterile looking pedestal and the wall hung sink is definitely the storage capability. A vanity provides all your bathroom essentials at your fingertips and is one of the most distinctive pieces of furniture in the home.

If you want cutting edge, the latest in vanities take a u-turn from tradition. These modern European trends are all about steel and limestone, taking on a retro look from the 70’s. Some pieces are very elegant looking, like the Kohler Fountainhead Bathroom Vanity. This free standing vanity looks more like art than a bathroom fixture, very stylish. At the other end of the spectrum is the Atic Pop Vanty. I almost expected Austin Powers to pop out of this thing. They say in the description that it’s a trendy lime green, 70’s inspired piece. I’m not sure if either lime green or the 70’s is inspirational. A handyman can usually assemble the store bought vanities, or you can just follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
