Okay, I know we just posted an entry about
Michael S. Smith for Ann Sacks -- but we have to show you his latest collection --
Michael S. Smith Cosmati. I told you we were obsessed with his work -- I wasn't kidding! The man has TASTE...
Michael S. Smith Cosmati is an exclusive hand-crafted stone mosaic program designed by one of the industry's most respected talents. The collection offers a breathtaking range of designs that draw inspiration from various elements of Greek, Moroccan and Parisian antiquities. Meticulously cut by water-jet and then painstakingly assembled by hand, the grand scale of Cosmati mosaics is most at home in residential foyers or hotel lobbies. -- www.annsacks.com
