Semi-recessed vessel sink - with overflow? Milforde Semi-Recessed Porcelain Sink

There would not be "technical information" about this situation any way. What would it say? Something like, "After the sink is installed always keep a pan under the sink to catch any "overflow water", or if the sink is installed on top of a countertop, be sure to seal around the drain hole and around the sink so any water exiting the overflow opening is trapped under the sink"? This "situation" needs a phone call to the company's customer service department.

By tech. info, I was looking for dimension specs, install instructions....NOTHING there

Pour water through the overflows and see where it comes out...

Yeah did that - it comes right out those two holes.

I already told him to do that. He said he did and the water came out of those two holes, but that he would just mop up any water that "spilled" out of them from overflowing.

Is it possible that the holes are close enough to the drain opening that when pop-up assembly is installed, the nut, washer, and rubber gasket will cover/seal the "dime" size openings..... and then overflow will flow into holes in side of popup assy. Your use of "dime size" sounds pretty big...

How about a picture??
