Live Edge Backsplash and Walnut Vanity

This client’s guest bath had a fairly contemporary feel to it, but they wanted to add an organic element as a focal point to the design.   In keeping with the clean lines and contemporary feel, I designed the vanity top to have a clean miter corner, which angled the end of the counter back to the wall.
To achieve the organic focal point the client was looking for; I used a live edge slab as the backsplash and fitted it with ebony butterfly inlays to draw your eye in, bringing attention to the beautiful figure in the grain of the slab.
The vanity was outfitted with an onyx sink.  To hide the plumbing under the counter I built a custom shaped pedestal out of walnut and inset an onyx slab in the face of the pedestal.
The onyx sink and pedestal are backlit with LED’s.  One of the coolest characteristics of onyx is its translucent nature. When lit from behind the onyx glows and shows off all its beautiful color and patterns in the stone.
Sizes are approximate
8″ tall (vanity top)
16-18″ tall (backsplash)
27″ deep
76″ long
