exactly why they built this way for centuries before anyone invented a thermostat.

A little preview of what's in stock: antique stone urns and planters, each one salvaged differently. Pick one and it instantly looks like it's been there for generations, because somewhere, it already was.

Designers, be honest: you've all had that client who wants nine focal points in one kitchen. This is what happens when someone finally lets a single element win.
