Located in the beautiful Lancashire hills of the English countryside, Shaws of Darwen manufacture original English ceramic kitchen sinks — the quintessential heart of a working kitchen.
The company’s fabulous range radiates the charm of a bygone era, when artisans strove for perfection with natural materials. Hardwearing appeal combined with handcrafted workmanship gives character to every individual piece that leaves the factory.

Each Shaws handcrafted kitchen sink, including the popular Butler and Belfast models, are proudly stamped with the signature of the maker and bears its own distinctive finish. The company also offers sinks such as the classic shaker double bowl and the rustic style of the Ribchester or the Bowland.
These models and more come in a number of sizes, and there is even a range of inset and undermount individual bowls in square, rectangular and round shapes. Shaws’ world-class manufactured sinks are all made with the same unique traditional techniques that have given them a prestigious name for more than 100 years.
