It’s for our powder room and I could not be more excited! Now the only question is which wallpaper?? I’m thinking Osborne and Little Volte Face for an Art Deco look.

I see this sink in a grotto-coquillage bath, done by Judith Auclair or Christa Wilm...did you see my post showing the Lapis Lazuli S W faucet and hardware under "Sculpture as an Accessory"? I hope so!

Onyx, no; it looks cheap and "greasy".<br /><br />Saw a black one in a design mag years ago in a powder room lined with antiqued mirror squares, the intersections of the squares held by small antigued gilt bronze buttons. I know it sounds all too, but it was actually very understated and elegant, the antiqued mirror softening the impact of the marble and adding illusory space in which such a grand fixture seemed appropriate, even in the small powder room.Quatorzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16337746034416005462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-75964145108641741422011-02-03T10:45:55.459-05:002011-02-03T10:45:55.459-05:00OH MY GOODNESS! i am cracking up right now, becaus...OH MY GOODNESS! i am cracking up right now, because my parents have this very sink in their entry bath.
