Default Questions about these house's sink faucet's knobs.

Photographs: http://imgur.com/a/rLsnL

1. What brand and model are these sink faucet's knobs?
2. Trying to stop the slow leak by changing a rubber washer inside. How
to remove the handle?

Thank you in advance.

The look like Cheng Wong Kong Fung faucets. Have you tried removing the
screws in the handles?

They could be anybody's - and they may well be cartridge type that
does not have replaceable washers. If they are replaceable washers you
will need todissassemble one and take it to a plumbing supply (mabee
even some place like Home Despot if they have a "drone" who knows
anything) to get the right parts. Washers are generally not
manufacturer specific.

You need to remove the bushings around the base of the faucets. Use a good thick cloth and large pliers, the cloth to prevent scratching, to remove the bushings, after you remove the handles by loosening and removing the screws in the center of each handle. Find a handy neighbor to help, this is very basic handyman, not rocket science.

The spigot is the exact same shape as my 40 year old Delta.

Don't cling to a mistake just because you spent a lot of time or money
making it.

Which doesn't mean anything as the Ckinese have been cpying popular
designs for years.
