It was in a cottage in the country and fitted perfectly.

Have I mentioned a job I'am on at Hadrians Wall!
Well as its a heritage building and they are not allowed to have any extra windows - outside the bathroom they have a wall of 'stone' - 1 piece of 20mm thick granite in a beige/brown colour range about 2x3mts in size. What you can see in the markings on the polished surface is an effect of 'rolling hills' chosen for that very purpose.

Almost forgot about the picture!


I'am advised that it is Brazilian Granite.
And it was bought to represent the rolling hills behind the building - see thread on Hadrians Wall illuminations.

I love ALL stone:drool5:, so having to choose one is difficult, but for versatility and with my business head on, it has to be the travertine for it's ease of working and how it can be put anywhere with guaranteed good results:8:

Sandstone is my favorite stone just because of its multiple usage.
