Powder room
A tall onyx, one-piece vessel basin in the powder room features gold and caramel color veins.
The onyx was mined from a quarry in Mayer, Arizona that was originally owned by the Henry Ford factory when it was used for the gear shift knobs for the Ford Model T
The countertop of a snow white onyx cantilevers across to embrace and encircle the vessel but never touches it.

The landscape of vertical masses against horizontal planes of stone plays against cabinets made of paldeo wood that float in mid air, walls do not touch, stone which intersects and passes through glass elements with ease and distinction.
