This is a well thought out, appealing vignette. The raised panel vanity style is familiar but the combination of a great shade of gray, clear crystal knobs that become invisible, the Calcatta stone slab with its light gray and gold veins and tall backsplash, and the personal accessories make this so pleasant. However, the main ingredient is the gold leaf decorative French mirror accompanied by a pair of very simple lights. This is a great example how an ordinary space can be transformed with just one incredible object.
