SHAWS MAKES FINEST HANDMADE SINKS



A shaws handmade sink will enhance your kitchen


Walk into the newly designed kitchen of a friend. Note the built in oven, microwave and the double door refrigerator with automatic ice dispenser. See the convenient island in the center of the room. When you first walk into a kitchen with an apron front handmade sink from Shaws of Darwen, the sink may be the most impressive item in the room. Handmade sinks made by Shaws are meticulously crafted by skilled artisans who imprint their name on each sink they make. The terms "pride of workmanship" and "skilled craftsmen" immediately come to mind.

The words "excellent taste" and "lovely decor" will come to mind when you think of the homeowner who has selected one of these distinctive handmade sinks. There are many to choose from. Especially attractive is the fluted front model. For the kitchen island many people are adding a small size second sink for the convenience of having work space for two chefs at the same time. Pull up a stool and chop and rinse your veggies while your husband is preparing meat for a barbecue. Whenever company comes to dinner, the kitchen seems to be everyone's favorite gathering place.

A Shaws of Darwen handmade sink indicates superior quality and
longevity. You can also select a Shaws attractively designed faucet (tap). They are available in Chrome, English Gold, Brushed Nickel and Antique Bronze. We also make strainer baskets with matching finishes.

It was back in 1897 that Shaws of Darwen was founded by Arthur
Gerard Shaw. He recognized the demand for glazed bricks and met
those demands with a brick of superior quality. The business was such
a success that he soon expanded into production of other exterior
building materials. The reputation of Shaws continued to grow and other lines of products were introduced. Fireclay handmade sinks were soon
as popular as Shaws other fine items. For over a century we have
made consistently superior quality products eventually offering them
for sale through distributors all over the world.

Just as our building materials are featured on famous buildings around
the world, the handmade sinks are part of the kitchen decor of fine homes in many countries. Fireclay handmade sinks crafted one at a time in much the same way they were crafted in 1897 are acid, alkali, impact and
scratch resistant. Shaws handmade sinks are guaranteed for twenty-five years but expected to endure for a hundred years. A finely crafted handmade sink from Shaws of Darwen is a symbol of pure luxury.

If you would like to know more there is an online brochure containing pictures and descriptions of all our fine handmade sinks and faucets.
It is available in PDF format. Each sink is made in white or biscuit
and we also offer finely engineered faucets (taps) with the choice of 
four finishes to complement your decor. Contact either Shaws or
your local distributor for additional information. We take pride in our
history of producing superior quality products to be sold around the world.

Equally important to us is providing complete satisfaction to the many clients who rely on our reputation for excellence...
