How can I tell the difference between a ceramic and a porcelain sink?
1 Answer
To tell the difference between a ceramic and a porcelain sink, try placing a magnet near it. Most porcelain sinks are metal with a porcelain finish. As a result, magnets usually stick to their surfaces. Ceramic sinks are usually entirely ceramic and not magnetic. Shop a collection of antique and vintage sinks on 1stDibs.
