The sink is a great invention, we use it every day, yet we rarely give it a second thought. In the past, people used big bowls of water (called wash basins) for washing. These wash basins did not drain and had to be manually emptied often. In the 18th century, modern plumbing made fresh water available indoors, along with sewage drainage, and thus the invention of the modern sink came to be. Nowadays, sinks come in many styles, and these are some the most stylish and unique sinks I have ever laid eyes upon. |
