There are many different factors to consider when you are choosing a bathroom vanity, and for the most part most people concentrate on things such as the size of the vanity, the amount of storage space, and whether or not to choose a single sink model or a double sink model.
However, among the important factors to consider are two essential factors that are often overlooked but which can have a considerable impact on the design of the vanity itself, including the materials used for the vanity top, and the engravings and design of the vanity frame.
When it comes to choosing vanity top materials, you need to take great care, because these will have a great effect on how long the vanity will last and how long it will keep its looks.
For the area around the sink, you should try to choose materials that are stain resistant, and which will not warp.
This is especially important if the vanity will be used frequently.
Some of the best materials to choose including marble or granite.
Granite is the hardest of these two surfaces, and is available in a very wide range of color choices.
Marble looks more natural, and gives a much warmer look.
Some people think that marble can stain easily, but if it is sealed it can keep its beauty for many years.
When it comes to looking at the various designs that are available in both modern and antique vanities, you need to understand that things such as engravings can bring out a distinct personality and can really add to the design style of the bathroom.
If you like the antique look, try to find a vanity that includes things such as floral designs, or maybe natural motifs such as butterflies or flowers.
If you want something that looks more modern you may go for a more plain style, though these are available in some antique styles as well including Shaker style.
By keeping these two factors in mind there is much more chance that you will find a vanity that is not only the right size for you, but one which will also be long-lasting and have the right style impact.
