Judging quality on pedestal lavs is a bit tougher.
The drain is in the faucet hardware.
Everybody makes some in their line.
Toto does too, if you go to their web site.

The cheaper pedestal basins can work as well as the more expensive ones. However, some of the downsides are uneven casting, extremely poor support hangers/screws and so on, and they can be very easy to break.

One thing to pay close attention to is the distance from the floor to the bottom of the trap and the space for the trap inside the pedestal. I usually look for pedestals that have the back open all the way to the floor. Too often I've run into drain piping that was too low in the wall for the trap to fit.

This is awkward, but...
