Franke Granite Sink Colors and Specifications

The Franke granite sink color range depends on the type of sink you buy with the various colors only available for a particular size or configuration. For convenience, here is a brief rundown of the various Franke granite sinks available along with the colors you can buy them in.

You can buy Franke granite sinks in either single bowl or double bowl size. The size of a single bowl topmount/undermount sink measures 15-3/4” x 21-3/8” on the interior of the bowl and 22-3/16” x 25-3/4” as the overall dimension. The depth of the sink measures 9 1/8”.

The Franke granite double bowl sinks are also available although there is a larger range of these sinks with two sinks available as topmount / undermount options and a third sink that can only be installed as a topmount sink.

The first double bowl sink comes with only a single faucet hole and the overall dimension of the sink itself is 33” x 22”.

Granite Sink Features

For a kitchen sink that will really stand out from the rest you don’t have to go for a bigger is better option. You simply have to look for a material that is not often used for sinks although it is regularly seen in the kitchen. I’m talking about a granite sink.

We have already taken a short look at granite kitchen sinks to put the idea that a granite sink would look great in a modern kitchen design. Now we might think about the features that a granite sink will bring to the kitchen.

Here is a collection of granite sinks to give you an idea of what you should be looking for.

The first reason that you would choose a granite sink over a sink made with some other material is that it is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The darkness of the granite makes a profound statement to the eye and many people will find this an extremely appealing aspect. You may choose to match the granite counter top exactly so that the entire sink and counter look as though they are one, or you may choose to contrast a dark granite sink with a light colored counter top.

Granite Sink 1

Granite sinks come in single or double bowl configurations and are made in an array of sizes. They are also quite deep down to a depth of 9 inches. Anything deeper than that is not comfortable ergonomically. They may also be made with multiple depth levels in the one unit. So the larger bowl may be a couple of inches deeper than the smaller bowl.

Part of the appeal of a granite sink is that it is very easy to keep it clean, particularly if you have installed a non-porous granite sink. The stone can simply be given a rinse with the top every so often. For small spots that stick to the sink, a solution of vinegar and water will quickly clear the stain. If the stain is larger and more difficult to remove, a solution of baking soda and water that is scrubbed into the surface gently will have the sink looking new again without much fuss.

Granite Sink 2The variations in the kind of granite available are another feature that many people will like. Although granite is often a dark stone, there are kinds of granite that is almost white in color. For most people the bigger drawing attraction with a granite kitchen sink was that the dark sink stood out from the rest of the kitchen. A white granite sink is still a very striking and also gives you the other benefits of all granite sinks.

One of the really attractive types is a farmhouse granite sink that gives you the large, deep basin that is common in a farmhouse sink but you get to show off the entire front wall of the sink. The exposed side of a farmhouse granite sink creates an eye-catching feature in the kitchen.

Finally, a granite kitchen sink wins hands down on the counts of durability and ability to withstand hot and cold temperatures. Due to the nature of the stone a sink made of granite will provide you with a hard, resilient surface that will resist chipping and scratching.

A granite sink meets the needs of anyone who wants to install a sink that looks different to the standard stainless steel sink. It will give you a sink that will perform strongly day after day, remaining clean and hygienic without a lot of effort.
