A Symphony of Stone

This home reads room to room in limestone. A carved limestone console table on scrolled acanthus legs stands on antique limestone floor tiles in the entry hall, and the same flooring carries through a rounded archway into a living room warmed by a lit fireplace, and again beneath a wingback chair and writing desk in a quiet study. In the dining room, a long table rests on a fully carved limestone pedestal base, itself set on the same antique paving that runs throughout the house. The kitchen closes the story: a mottled limestone countertop and an integrated stone farmhouse sink sit beneath a dark glazed tile backsplash, with a second, more weathered limestone countertop on a wood island nearby, in front of a painted antique armoire.
