Belfast Sink Cowfield Design

The Belfast sink history is rooted in functionality over fashion. It is known all over the world for it’s unique and iconic shape. It is bigger than the London Butler sink with a distinctive overflow feature. It gained prominence in the eighteenth century when Belfast had an abundance of freshwater, unlike London or other cities where it was scarce. The Belfast Sink, therefore, became a symbol of wealth and excess. The design still stands the test of time today and it remains as popular as ever in domestic and commercial settings.

This miniature Belfast sink made from glazed ceramic, is strong and long lasting. It is super versatile; from plant holder, to soap dish, from jewellery box to candle holder it will enhance any home and is a lovely gift.

About: Cowfield Design is a family business started around 5 years ago with Sean making furniture and mirrors made out of the driftwood collected on the beaches of Donegal. One day he set upon the task of making a small wooden model of the infamous Harland and Wolfe cranes that tower over Belfast… and since then they haven’t looked back.

As a family they never really went abroad, spending many summers in Donegal and creating many fond memories. It is this that inspired their products. They are inspired by the Island they live on, with many of the products designed to bring back the memories of times spent at some of the great destinations across Ireland. They wanted people to have a ‘A reminder of the unforgettable’, the unforgettable craic you had in a pub, the unforgettable views you came across on your travels or hikes!

Sarah (sister, daughter), Sean (Dad) and Conor (brother) form the small but mighty team. They are based in Belfast and have a range of skills from a background in operations to a degree in graphic design and also some good old fashioned joinery skills! These varied skills have helped Cowfield Design to grow to where it is now. They thank you for your continued support.

The Royal Society Of Ulster Architects is delighted to collaborate and support a local maker of high quality designs which reflect the built environment. A perfect gift for anyone with an interest in local heritage or the built environment. This product can be viewed in our bookshop so do pop in if you are in Belfast.
