Alongside its wall-mounted counterpart, Sabbia 4, this version completes a family of washbasins that reimagine the ritual of bathing through proportion, calm, and clarity. Also available in white with Soft Touch grey for added sophistication.
Boffi
Sabbia 4 – 5
Part of an iconic duo by Naoto Fukasawa for Boffi, the Sabbia 5 freestanding washbasin expresses the essence of purity through fluid lines and architectural balance. With its oval section and gently softened geometry, it evokes the serene presence of a sculpted form worn by time and water. Crafted from matte white Cristalplant®, a velvety solid-surface material, it offers both resilience and tactile elegance.
Sabbia 5 is designed to stand freely at the center of the space, emphasizing its monolithic character and creating a focal point of minimalist luxury. The washbasin includes a drain and siphon kit with a Cristalplant® cap, allowing for seamless integration into high-end interiors.
