Stainless steel sinks are made in a variety of shapes and sizes. Here's a sampling of what you'll find.

Diamond Spas, Inc., a custom manufacturer of bath products, has a hexagon lavatory for the counter. This six sided sink measures 20.5 inches by 23.75 inches and has a depth of 6.5 inches. It is available in under mount or "self-rimming" styles. The price is $1,175.

Just Manufacturing makes round and oval sinks, ranging from 10 to 16-inches in diameter. The sinks are priced from $180 to $440. There are models that are mounted under the countertop and ones that are installed flush with the counter. The latter style is considered "self rimming."

Kohler Co. has oval and round sinks that can be mounted under the countertop. The round sinks range from about 14-inches to 19 inches in diameter. Some have a muted, satin finish while others have a shiny finish. One stainless steel sink is considered a vessel sink, as it is mounted above the countertop.
