Beautiful Glass Kitchen Sinks

Oceana brings both the unique beauty of colored glass sinks and everyday practicality to your kitchen design. The "Hard Roc" glass sinks are made of a borosilicate formula, the same material used in Pyrex to make it extremely durable.

Oceana glass vessel sinks are beautiful and durable enough to be used everyday in a kitchen

JSG Oceana glass vessel kitchen sinks are made of a unique form of borosilicate glass, which is the oldest glass knows to show high resistance to sudden temperature changes, and is the type of glass used in refrigerator and oven cookware. It is most commonly known on the market as Pyrex.

Whether you're remodeling or building your dream home, you'll love the unique gemlike accents this glass sink will provide to your kitchen. It's a great way to incorporate one of the hottest trends in modern design, without having to worry about durability.

Oceana's glass kitchen sinks are designed to withstand the rigors of everyday use in the kitchen, and is the only durable glass kitchen sink on the market. The sinks come in both undermount and drop-in styles and are available in 17 colors - including luminous metallics and beautiful blues, pearl and crystal shades. Expect to pay a little more for this sink than you would with a traditional porcelain or stainless sink, in the $800 range.

Glass sinks are extremely hygenic because they are non-porous and cleaning is effortless. For normal cleaning, simply use mild soap and warm water, wiping dry with a soft, clean cloth. More dirty sinks can be cleaned using popular household cleaners, like Fantastik, Scrub Free or Mr. Clean.

Some of our favorite features are:

Scratch Resistant
The hard roc glass used in Oceana glass vessel kitchen sinks is exceptionally resistant to abrasion and surface scratches. It is actually more scratch resistant than both stainless steel and porcelain.

Stain Resistant
Oceana hard roc glass is stain resistant, so you can use many household cleaners and expose them to non-fluorinated chemicals without having to worry about damaging their lustorous color and clear quality. These glass sinks, unlike traditional soda-lime glass sinks, will not become cloudy from household cleaners or absorb rust stains from hard water.

Temperature Resistant
Being able to withstand sudden temperature changes is critical when selecting glass vessel sinks for the kitchen. One minute you're draining boiling hot water from pasta, the next rinsing vegetables in cold water. The Oceana hard roc glass sinks will not crack or develop lines from quick hot and cold water changes - they can actually withstand repeated temperature changes between 0 degrees and 212 degrees without damange.

Oceana's glass sinks are available at many home supply stores, such as the Expo Design Centers. You can also find dealers offering the sinks by going to the Oceana official website and checking the dealer locator tool prominently featured on their site.
