Happy Monday!  Hope you had a great weekend.<\/div>\n

This kitchen \u2013 one of my all time favourites \u2013 is a stand-out in my mind thanks, in part, to the backsplash tile.  They are hand painted tiles<\/a> in a traditional pattern which look very much at home in this modern-vintage kitchen.  The tiles are the work of Walker Zanger<\/a>, one of the BlogTour Las Vegas<\/a> sponsors. <\/div>\n

Walker Zanger is a family owned business that has been providing their clients with marble and stone from around the world for over 60 years. You can read about their philosophy and artistry here<\/a>. I love this: \u201cThis human connection is the bedrock of our company: the relationships with families who have worked the quarries for generations, the fathers and sons who hand down the intricate knowledge required to select and judge stone, who work each day in the quarries and block yards, hand selecting the perfect block, the most beautiful slab, the finest tiles.\u201d  <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You usually take for granted that there are people, perhaps on the other side of the world, who have worked thoughtfully to choose and finish the stone that is in your home.  <\/div>\n
