The Alexandra — Fused Multi-Layer Glass Rectangular Countertop with Integral Basin on Single Square Architectural Pedestal (LAS340)
Handcrafted in Canada since 1999
Lifetime Warranty — Only Manufacturer to Offer It
25+ Years of Technical Expertise
Superior Quality Control
The Alexandra is a two-piece glass pedestal ensemble of neo-classical architectural authority. A generous 48" rectangular glass countertop — with an integral rectangular basin centred within its surface — is elevated on a single square architectural glass pedestal of classical proportions. The result is a freestanding bathroom centrepiece of commanding presence and timeless elegance.
The Alexandra’s signature volcanic bubble texture — a richly tactile surface of organic craters and molten relief — distinguishes it from all other VERRE Gallery models. Each piece is available in 8 exclusive colors, from the dramatic Black Onyx to the luminous Azurlite, each revealing the volcanic texture with extraordinary depth.
100% recyclable glass — a responsible choice for your luxury project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why 4 to 6 weeks?
Each piece is handcrafted to order in our Canadian atelier. We maintain no inventory — your basin is created exclusively for you. Some models may be available from stock — contact us to check.
What is the volcanic bubble texture?
The Alexandra’s signature texture is created during the glass firing process — a controlled volcanic effect that produces an organic surface of craters, bubbles, and molten relief. No two pieces are identical. The texture catches light differently throughout the day, making The Alexandra a living, ever-changing presence in your bathroom.
Is the lifetime warranty truly unlimited?
Yes, absolutely. We are the only ones to offer it because we have perfectly mastered our process after 25 years of expertise. If a manufacturing defect appears in 5, 10, or 20 years, we will replace your piece.
Can I customize the colour or dimensions?
Absolutely. Our 8 exclusive natural pigments are available, and custom dimensions can be developed for your project. Contact us for a complimentary consultation.
Is glass fragile?
No. Cast at premium thickness and fully thermal-shock resistant, The Alexandra is extremely robust. That is precisely why we offer a lifetime warranty against thermal shock.
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes — VERRE Gallery offers complimentary White Glove Delivery worldwide. Every piece is professionally packaged and fully insured for safe transit.
Is installation complex?
Professional installation is strongly recommended. The square pedestal requires proper floor anchoring and plumbing preparation. Our team provides detailed specifications and can refer you to qualified installers in your region.
