Jurassic Onyx Vessel Sink Design Board

I'll admit, I'm having a love affair with onyx.  

I didn't know a whole lot about this stone but realized I NEEDED to find out more when I found this 

JURASSIC ONYX VESSEL SINK.

Most people think of onyx as a straight black stone, 

when it's actually a multi-layered stone that varies in color, from black and charcoals 

to creams and whites. Onyx is one of the only translucent stones, as well.

Here's how I would style a pretty onyx vessel sink:

1. Rocky Mountain Deck Mount Faucet
2. Quoizel Ferrara Wall Sconce
3. Z Gallerie Reflection Wall Mirrror
4. Schumacher Wallpaper Kisho Sisal in Gold
5. Jurassic Onyx Vessel Sink

Black Basalt Infininty Sink Design Board

Matte black has been coming into vogue over the past year or so (remember this post?) 

and I must admit, I'm a huge fan!  When I saw this  

BLACK BASALT INFINITY SINK

 for the first time, I had to wipe a little drool off my chin.

The basalt has a gorgeous understated matte finish that would be 

great in a master bath or even a powder room. 

I would style mine with a little Parisian Bistro edge with a lot more 

matte black stone and antique brass:

How would you style yours?

1. Kohler Purist Faucet

2. Visual Comforts Library Sconce

3. Basalt Mosaic Hex Tile

4. Shake Door

5. Caesarstone Raven

6. Chic Vessel Sinks Black Basalt Infinity Sink
