The Nantucket Sinks TRS2416 is a 23.75" x 16" hand-hammered stainless steel trough bathroom sink from the Brightwork collection, handmade by artisans from 18-gauge steel and polished to a high shine. It can be topmounted or undermounted, and its 21.5" x 13.5" basin is the larger Brightwork stainless trough for a primary bath or a wide vanity in a 27" cabinet.
The basin is 6" deep, deeper than the 4" TRS. Nantucket says the high shine adds a touch of drama, and like the brightwork on a ship, the sink is meant to be the highlight of your vanity. There is no overflow, and it takes a standard lavatory drain without overflow; the spec sheet names Nantucket's NS-UDC chrome umbrella drain.
It is crafted from 304 stainless steel and hammered by hand, so individual variations exist and the dimensions are nominal, varying by up to 1/4". The steel will naturally patina if left untreated, and a quick polish brings back the luster, simple upkeep for a large statement sink.
The TRS2416 weighs 13 lbs. The 19.8" TRS and the 20.25" TRS-OF are the smaller stainless troughs, and the TRB2416-OF is a similar 23.5" trough in hand-hammered brass.
Installing the TRS2416
The TRS2416 can be topmounted or undermounted. Because every hand-made Brightwork basin is unique, Nantucket's guide provides no template: the installer traces the actual rim and, for an undermount, subtracts 1/8" from the outline (adding 1/4" where an overhang is wanted). Mounting hardware, template and silicone are not included, silicone should be kept off the bowl because it can damage the finish, and a small rim bend from shipping can be flattened with a rubber mallet over a towel.
Brightwork is Nantucket's curated assortment of specialty metal sinks, inspired by the brightwork on sailboats; like sunlight sparkling on the ocean on a clear day, the brand says, these pieces bring brilliance to a bath, bar or kitchen. The collection works in hand-hammered stainless steel, brass and copper, in round, square, oval, rectangular and trough bath and bar sinks, plus kitchen sinks, a farmhouse apron and the Steppe two-tier sink, so a home can repeat one metal from the powder room to the kitchen.
Caring for Hammered Stainless Steel
Care for the TRS2416 follows Nantucket's hammered stainless guide: clean regularly with a non-abrasive cloth and a mild, bleach-free soap such as original Dawn, towel dry after every use to prevent water spots, and never use steel wool. For a deeper clean the brand recommends Flitz Polish Paste or a liquid metal polish, followed by Flitz Faucet Wax Plus to protect the surface, and it asks owners to keep cleaners other than mild soap and water off the steel and to rinse away grooming products, wine, fruit acid and ketchup.
The TRS2416 is the Nantucket Sinks 23.75" hammered stainless trough bathroom sink for a primary bath or wide vanity, handmade in polished 304 stainless steel.
Features
Large 21.5" x 13.5" Trough
The TRS2416's basin is 21.5" x 13.5" and 6" deep, a generous interior within the 23.75" x 16" exterior.
Top or Undermount
The design can be topmounted or undermounted, so the trough works on an existing vanity top or below a new stone counter.
No Overflow Drain
The sink takes a standard lavatory drain without overflow, such as the NS-UDC named on the spec sheet, so the hammered interior stays uninterrupted.
Fits a 27" Cabinet
Nantucket lists a 27" minimum vanity cabinet, so the trough suits wider single vanities and furniture-style pieces.
18-Gauge Hammered Stainless
Hammered by hand from 18-gauge stainless steel, the material and gauge Nantucket lists for this Brightwork sink.
Handmade, Nominal Dimensions
Each TRS2416 is made by hand, so Nantucket lists its measurements as nominal and they can vary by up to 1/4". Measure the actual sink before the countertop is cut so the opening fits your piece exactly.

Installation & Care
Installation
This handmade sink can be undermounted or top mounted (overmounted). Nantucket recommends professional installation. Because every hand-made basin is unique, no template is provided: the installer traces the actual rim, and for an undermount the guide subtracts 1/8" from the traced outline (adding 1/4" where an overhang is wanted). Mounting hardware, template and silicone are not included, and silicone should be kept off the bowl, where it can damage the finish. A small rim bend from shipping can be flattened with a rubber mallet over a towel. It fits a 27" minimum base cabinet. There are no faucet holes, so the faucet mounts on the countertop or the wall. The center opening takes a standard lavatory drain without overflow (NS-UDC), sold separately. The Brightwork installation guide is in Resources.
Care
Clean regularly with a non-abrasive cloth and a mild, bleach-free soap such as original Dawn, and towel dry after every use to prevent water spots. Never use steel wool. For a deeper clean, Nantucket recommends Flitz Polish Paste or a liquid metal polish, then Flitz Faucet Wax Plus to protect the surface. Keep cleaners other than mild soap and water off the steel, and rinse away face cleansers, toothpaste, grooming products, wine, fruit acid and ketchup, which alter the finish.

About Nantucket Sinks
Nantucket Sinks is a boutique sink maker based in North Kingstown, Rhode Island, that has designed kitchen and bath sinks for more than two decades. Its range of over 500 products brings together fireclay, stainless steel, granite composite, vitreous china, cast iron and hand-hammered metals sourced from skilled makers in Italy, China and beyond, styled with the charm of the New England coast.
Brightwork is Nantucket Sinks' collection of specialty metal sinks, named for the polished metal trim on a sailboat. Most pieces are hand hammered by artisans, so the dimpled surface catches the light and no two are exactly alike. In stainless steel the collection covers round, oval, square and trough-style bath and bar sinks plus kitchen bowls, prep stations and a farmhouse apron; in copper it adds a hammered prep station and the Steppe two-tier sink designed with Studio Dearborn.
