    A pedestal sink comes in two parts, the pedestal (which is a column), and the basin. The basin has to be given additional support by a bracket that must be screwed into wall studs, because the column doesn't provide enough support on its own.

    On the Other: Pedestal Sinks Can Be Made of Durable Materials

    Like any other sink, a pedestal sink can be made more difficult to break by choosing the proper materials to make it out of. Hard resins, cast metals and other durable materials will enhance a pedestal sink's durability.

    Bottom Line

    A pedestal sink is only as easy to break as its supports and materials allow. If a pedestal sink is made of glass and it's not well supported, then it will be simple to break. On the other hand, if a pedestal sink is well-supported with a proper bracket and it's made of durable materials, it will be quite strong and difficult to break.
