The cabinets are Clear Alder with a dark stain and the countertops are Daino Reale marble with a leathered finish.

The cabinets are built with a pre-finished Birch plywood interior and hardwood dovetail drawers. The door hardware is a blum euro style concealed hinge with soft close and the drawer guides are a Blum B563H full extension undermount drawer guide with soft close. The legs on the vanity are Osborne #1466 husky reeded island legs.

What is the most unusual aspect or outstanding characteristic of this entry?
One of the best parts of this bathroom is the tall fluted columns and the finished soffit above the vanities. The fluting on the columns that frames the mirrors is interrupted by the sconce lights that provide the lighting.
