Not just girly, Jane Seymour-girly.

I would love it if it were much more dark and gothic -like the black bathroom you previously posted. And the matching knobs are just ick.

I don't think I could stand to look at that every morning.

Not so much girly as over OTT icky. And something about it kind of reminds me of mildew.

Sleeping Beauty was my favorite fairy tale, but this is too much. Add 15 cats and some Victorian wallpaper and you've got spinster-chic.

Finally, Kohler has responded to my Grandmother's design ideas.

Where was the answer "Not, it looks like someone just bled all over it"? I am another one who thought it was just seriously dirty.

Yeah, I thought this was a post about moldy sinks.

Every time someone buys one of these sinks, a minimalist dies.

lol @ Blandwagon.

I'd wake up, look at this sink, and crawl back into bed.

it's like my mom's sense of style barfed all over the sink.

I think it fits in this bathroom. I don't think you could put it in just any ol' bathroom, especially one in a modern style, but it works here. Many other aspects of the room seem almost as ornate.

Ew. Love the faucet, though. Very graceful, swan-like - fits in with what little of the rest of the room we can see, and with the shape of the sink.

i'd start trying to pick a hair off and realize it was a painted vine.

Ha ha hahahahaha. Liked the comment of barfing up taste!

Ok, we did a hand painted Kohler sink with a tall ship and the matching compass rose faucet for a customer who spent over $18,000 on materials for 3 sinks, 3 vanity tops only, 3 faucets, one toilet and one-hand held polished nickel shower faucet with valve. She spent more dough on the labor to install the plumbing fixtures. Her house is probably worth 4 mill, even in today's market--she came in with a list of what she wanted, and we got it for her. It's her money;she can spend it how she wants, I figure.
