Chichester Undermount Double Door Washstand

When it comes to painted timber, we use tulipwood – a strong and resilient hardwood. Its fine, almost knot-free grain makes it perfectly suited to a painted finish, so you get the best of both worlds – strength and smoothness.

Not every piece of furniture and every colour of paint needs the same process – a ‘one finish suits all’ approach won’t ever give you the best result possible. That’s why we vary the number of coats and use both hand-painted and spray-painted techniques depending on what that shade requires. 

Carrara marble is a naturally occurring metamorphic rock. It’s grey-white in colour, and has darker veining that makes each piece unique. It’s a beautiful material, it just requires more hands-on care than other stones. Don’t worry, it doesn’t take long and you’ll find exactly what to do in our care guide.  

The marble has a sleek, polished finish – a classic look that’s a contrasting texture to the almost-matte eggshell paint. We’ve sealed it to help protect against stains, and we suggest that you reapply it using our stone care kit each year. 

All our bathroom basins are ceramic – it’s the material we’ve found to be the best combination of durability and looks. On this style, which sits below the work surface, the overflow hole is hidden out of first sight on the side closest to you. 

We’ve pre-drilled the holes for the taps into the marble top – you needn’t worry about that. But we haven’t included the taps themselves so you can pick the style. The holes will fit most three-hole designs, including our Bamburgh . 

Inside each of the cupboards is an adjustable shelf that rests on zigzag supports – a design that’s both attractive and strong. There are also small oak cubbies on the inside of each door, which make use of this space for often-used items. Above are false drawers that hide the sinks – there for aesthetics rather than function.
