Franke Farm House 33" x 20" White Apron Front Single Bowl Fireclay Kitchen Sink - FHK710-33WH

A Farmhouse Sink With a Lighter Profile

Love the look of a white farmhouse sink but worried it will feel heavy and chunky in your kitchen? The Franke Farm House FHK710-33WH keeps the classic apron front but with noticeably slimmer walls than a traditional fireclay sink, so it reads as refined rather than rustic.

That slimmer profile comes from how it is made. Instead of pressing damp clay into a mold, Franke pours liquid ceramic and fires it, which produces a denser, more uniform body with a very smooth surface. The result is a sink that holds its shape with less bulk and a glaze that feels almost silky to the touch.

Inside, a single 31.44" bowl gives you room to soak sheet pans and wash large pots, and the 9.19" depth keeps splashing in check.

CeramicPlus coating causes water to bead and run off

Stains That Wipe Away

The most common worry with a white sink is staining. Franke's CeramicPlus finish is a permanent coating that makes the surface water-repellent, so coffee, tea and red wine bead up instead of soaking in, and they wipe off with ordinary dish soap and a soft cloth. There is no special cleaner or regular sealing to remember.

Q&A

What size cabinet do I need?

A 33" wide farmhouse sink base cabinet. Standard sink bases have a solid front panel, so either buy an apron-front cabinet or have your installer cut the front to fit the apron.

How do I clean it?

Warm water, dish soap and a soft cloth or sponge are all it needs. Avoid steel wool and harsh abrasive powders, which can dull any glazed surface over time.

What is the difference between this and a cast iron farmhouse sink?

Both are glazed and very durable. Fireclay is fired ceramic all the way through, while cast iron is an enamel coating over metal. A deep chip in enamel exposes the iron underneath; fireclay is the same material throughout.

Are there matching accessories?

Yes. Franke makes a fitted bottom grid (FK33-36S), a basket strainer (1145) and other accessories designed for this sink.
