Porcelain and enamel sinks have very similar appearances, but they aren’t the same. Porcelain is a ceramic made from natural clay, while enamel is a strong powder that’s glazed over a metal sink.

You can also use the model number on the sink (often found on the underside of the bowl) or information from the manufacturer to determine the material.
