A Modern Classic


In 1933, George Sakier, one of American Modernism's best-known designers, created a radical sink for American Standard that was defined by ball handles and a gently curved spigot. Today, P.E. Guerin, Inc., maker of fine artistic hardware since 1857, offers a faucet with strikingly similar lines. The New World faucet is sand cast, hand filed and polished, and made to order. With Plexiglas handles that can be customized to match any décor, the New World faucet, as shown in polished nickel and retailing for around $1,900, comes close to being a piece of functional art. Order at www.peguerin.com or by calling (212) 243-5270.
