There will be so many factors that we need to think first when we are about to choose the basin material for our bathroom for the first time, like as style, size, and—perhaps most importantly—material. With such a wide variety of basin materials out there, and an even wider range of prices, the first and most common material that is used for basin is ceramic. By far, this option is for those who want a more classic approach to their bathroom basin as porcelain basins have been in many homes for the past hundred years.
Ceramic basins are made using a blend of clays, fillers, and fluxes that are mixed and fused together during the firing process. Due to the firing process and the natural materials used, no two ceramic basins are ever 100% the same.
The materials and firing process used to create ceramic basins can have a drastic effect on their durability. High fire clays and glazes that are heated to over 1200 °C (2200 °F) have very high resistance to fading, staining, burning, and scratching. They also prove tough against acids.
Low fire clays, on the other hand, are fired at temperatures below 1200 °C. While these basins are still considerably durable and have an extremely low moisture absorbency, they are more susceptible to scratching as well as wear and tear due to aging.
 
Pros

• Easy to maintain as they are stain resistant, so all purpose cleaners can be used on them
• Ceramic is a kind of material that offers you the lowest level of maintenance, compared with other materials. It’s fair to say that maintaining porcelain is easier than maintaining other kind of materials.
• Keeps shine well
• Wide variety of colors and designs to choose from
• Gives your bathroom an antiquated look, paired well with a porcelain or cultured marble bathtub
• Will retain heat well, making it ideal for washing your face
• Price is variable. On the low end, a ceramic basin can cost you $100 while on the high end, you are looking at closer to $2,000 depending on your style and tastes.
