Black Bathroom Vanity

A black bathroom vanity gives the room something to hold onto: one dark, grounded cabinet at the sink, while the walls, tile and light around it stay bright. We've gathered our black and near-black vanities here from Wyndham Collection, James Martin Vanities and Ambella Home, from $723 to $6,374. If you're still choosing a color, our vanity colors collection lines black up against the other finishes we carry, so you can see it next to the whites and woods before you commit.

Espresso vs Black Vanity: Why the Names Differ

The first thing we tell anyone shopping this color is that espresso and black are basically interchangeable. Espresso is almost black. It adds a little texture, and it usually feels more sophisticated. Most makers don't build solid black vanities, so a cabinet that reads as black in your bathroom may well be named espresso.

That's why you'll see a handful of names on this page. Espresso and Dark Espresso lead the way, with Black Onyx, Carbon Oak and plain Black alongside, plus Glossy Black from Ambella. Think of them as shades of one idea, and let the photos do the deciding.

Black Bathroom Vanity Sizes, Single and Double Sink

Widths run from 24 inches up to 80, with 30, 36, 48, 60 and 72 inch cabinets in between, and 60 inches is the size you'll see most. To check a black cabinet against other finishes at your exact width, our vanities by size pages put them side by side. Measure the wall first and leave yourself a little breathing room on each side.

Single-sink and double-sink layouts show up in close to equal measure, so a shared primary bath and a solo guest bath are both covered. Nearly every piece is freestanding, none are floating, and most arrive with a sink and a top, so you aren't sourcing a counter on your own.

Matte Black Vanity Trim and Glossy Black Finishes

If matte black is what brought you here, here's how it works on these cabinets: matte black is the trim, not the paint color of the whole vanity. The Daria series pairs a Dark Espresso cabinet with Matte Black Trim, which gives you a crisp black line around the cabinet without going flat black everywhere. If you'd rather have shine, Ambella's Bamboo and Lyra come in Glossy Black.

Countertops for a Dark Vanity: Marble, Quartz and Silestone

A dark cabinet is where a light top earns its keep, and we'd lean toward white stone almost every time. On the Wyndham pieces you'll see White Carrara Marble, Carrara Cultured Marble, White Cultured Marble, Giotto Quartz and White Quartz, with undermount square and oval sinks, plus a Cabinet Only option if you're bringing your own top.

James Martin tops include Siberian Silestone, Victorian Silver Silestone, Eternal Jasmine Pearl Silestone, White Zeus Silestone and Carrara White Marble, and those vanities take either an 8 inch widespread or a single hole faucet. White stone over espresso is the pairing we come back to, because it keeps a dark cabinet from feeling heavy in a small room.

Door Styles for Your Black Vanity

Most of what's here is transitional, with lines simple enough for a new build and soft enough for an older one. You'll also find traditional, modern, reeded, fluted and shaker doors, plus a few vintage, antique and mid-century pieces. If the door matters more to you than the color, start with our modern bathroom vanity or shaker bathroom vanity collections, then come back here for the black versions.

Series worth knowing by name include Daria, Sheffield, Deborah, Marlena, Brittany, Lorelai, Brookfield, Myrrin, Lucian and Britannia. If you want the word black right in the name, start with Black Onyx, Black and Glossy Black, then widen out to the espressos once you've seen how close they sit.
