Installation Guide
Art Glass Vessels
Wells Sinkware art glass vessels have 8 size-shape combinations (styles) (See Art Glass Vessel Style Chart ). Some vessels (double layered in Style C and D) are intended for both above-counter and partial recess installations, while all the others should be only installed above the counter.
For above-counter installation
Step 1: In the countertop*, drill a hole 1 3/4'' diameter where the vessel bowl will be centered.
Step 2: Place mounting ring under the vessel as shown below if the vessel has a rounded bottom (Style A, C, D and G: Group 1), or directly put the vessel on top of the hole drilled in the countertop if the vessel has a flat bottom (Style B, E, H and I: Group 2).

Step 3: Use a generous portion of plumbers' putty under the drain cup of the lavatory drain supplied with the vessel and insert the whole body of the drain inside the bowl and through the countertop.
There may be a small beveled rubber washer included with your drain, discard it and use plumbers' putty instead.
