    What size fixture?
    What size drain fixture should I buy for a 1.75 inch drain hole? I have a vessel sink with a 1.75 in hole, but I have not seen a push button drain in that size. Should the drain be smaller than the hole, such as 1.5 or 1.25?

    This link goes to the kind of thin I am looking for
    Porcelain Vessel Sink Pop-up Drain and Overflow from Overstock.com

    I just need to know what size to look for!

    I have asked the sink manufacturer, and not received a satisfactory answer to what I think is a relatively simple question (for someone who knows the answer anyway!)

    Thanks!!

    There are special drains made for vessel sinks. The come in 1 1/4" and 1 1/2. Get the 1 1/2. there are the umbrella, pop up and flip type. Look where you bought the vessel sink.

    Herald beat me to it again. Most vessel sinks have a 1.5 inch drain and can accept either a "flip top- drain" or a "grid type drain" (see image) If you have a sink that takes a special drain you will have to bug the mabufacture. If you need instructions on installing a vessel sink click on; How To Install A Vessel Sink & Faucet
    Good luck, Tom
