As a design classic, the butler sink can be found in stylish kitchens across the UK but has largely been the favourite of country homes, rather than urbanites.That is, until now design-lead sink manufacturer Franke could open up this classic design to a whole audience with the stainless steel Belfast model.Recalling the classic lines and distinctive open-fronted installation of butler sinks of the past this model adds a modern, metallic edge to the classic ceramic original.With the balance between square external edges and the slightly softened rounded edges of the internal sink cavity, the stainless steel Belfast exudes a potent combination of elegance and modernity.The silk steel finish elevates the model above the more commonly-available stainless steel sinks, with a discernable note of quality in its design and construction.This intriguing design could well find its way high up the wish list of any planning a new or revamped kitchen, from the countryside to the suburbs.
