The Vela basin’s softly shaped rectangular form provides useful washing space while keeping its overall footprint manageable. Its above-counter installation gives the basin visual presence and allows the surrounding benchtop, tapware and accessories to form a coordinated bathroom composition.

Because the basin has no integrated tap hole, the tapware position and spout reach should be planned carefully before installation. Final benchtop preparation, structural support and plumbing clearances should be confirmed by the installer using the official technical drawing.

• Vela rectangular countertop basin: One gloss white vitreous china basin with no tap hole.
• Matching plug and waste: One coordinated white plug and waste supplied with the basin.
• Not included: Tapware, plumbing fittings and installation materials are not stated as included and should be selected separately to suit the installation.
