New Traditional Style Butlery Sink Will Coming Soon

Good news, our new arriving  butler sinks will be here on coming April.

The Butler sink was originally designed to be used by Butlers, with those made and used in Belfast having a weir overflow built in because fresh water was readily available in Belfast in the late 1700s so it didn’t matter if a little was wasted down the overflow.

However, the Butler sinks designed for use in London did not have overflows because the water was very precious in London at this time and had to be drawn from deep wells, so not having an overflow was a way to prevent water being wasted.

Traditionally these are the differences but nowadays all types of Butler sink will probably have overflows and there is also the less chunky styled French farmhouse sink which can be referred to as a butler sink.

These deep, square shaped, usually white butler sinks are set into the kitchen bench so the front is exposed. Not only does their design make them attractive and homely, their size makes them extraordinarily practical when it comes to kitchen chores ranging from washing vegetables to scrubbing the largest pots or grill trays.
