The Tile Depot is proud to introduce Fango basins to New Zealand, all the way from Argentina.

Fango basins combine a handmade manufacturing process with an industrial finish. These sinks are completely molded by hand using a potter’s wheel and hand painted by specialized artists. They are baked in automatic electric ovens which guarantee the high quality and extreme hardness of the ceramic and allow a more efficient and massive production process.

The handcrafted manufacturing process makes each product unique and not exactly alike.

These basins are surprisingly affordable and can become the centre piece of any new or renovated bathroom.

Visit your nearest Tile Depot outlet for more information.
