Labor without art is brutality. - John Ruskin What John Michael Kohler saw in 1883 when he looked at a cast-iron horse trough was the bathtub that launched a global plumbing company.

Antilia® Wading Pool® Nature’s Chemistry™ Above-counter sink 281⁄16" x 171⁄16" x 23⁄4" K-2369-B11 Antilia Wading Pool The legendary island Antilia was said to have been discovered – in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Portugal – by people fleeing Hispania in 734. Today, cartographers know no such island exists, but its intrigue remains. By bestowing this name on the Antilia Wading Pool sink, Kohler celebrates the sense of allure found throughout nature. Slightly curved edges and a subtle, rippled texture convey both the substantial force of nature and its shifting fluidity. 13

Briolette™ Vessels Nature’s Chemistry™ Above-counter sink 171⁄2" diameter x 43⁄4" K-2373-B11 Briolette Vessels From its roots in ancient India to its discovery by European royals, the briolette – an oval or pear-shaped gemstone cut in triangular facets – remains one of the most distinctive gemstone cuts. Its popularity reemerged during the Victorian era and the Art Deco period, and today the Briolette Vessels glass sink builds on the tradition. With its uniquely faceted shape, Briolette creates a striking, reflective effect with delicately textured glass. 14

Facet® Vessels Nature’s Chemistry™ Above-counter sink 19" diameter x 43⁄4" K-2368-B11 Facet Vessels Facet can denote a surface, as on a cut gem, or an object of contemplation. The Facet Vessels sink reflects nuances of both as the eye-catching centerpiece of any bathroom. With its distinctive triangular base, Facet presents an exciting juxtaposition to the traditional funnel shape of spun glass sinks.

Mirovia® Vessels Nature’s Chemistry™ Above-counter sink 187⁄8" diameter x 41⁄16" K-2370-B11 Mirovia Vessels According to geologists, billions of years ago a superocean named Mirovia surrounded Earth’s supercontinent. It’s a powerful image: such a colossal surface of water. And it’s the perfect name for a glass sink that celebrates water’s imposing presence. Simple and austere, the Mirovia Vessels sink has a subtle texture that mimics the ripple effect of the water’s surface.
