Beautifully textured by a pattern of hand-carved grooves, this early 20th-century millstone was created northern China from a single block of limestone. The stone was once used in a gristmill to grind rice and other grains. A testament to its age and use, the millstone shows signs of wear that add wonderful character and recall China's beautiful rice terraces, perpetually enshrouded in layers of mist. We love this millstone as a low display pedestal or a planter for lush greenery.

Each mill stone varies slightly. Each mill stone has one drainage hole, which can be filled if preferred.

Stone Trough Sinks

A stone sink is a unique way to embrace nature in design. Over the years, we’ve worked with clients who have incorporated troughs as sink basins in sleek Chicago apartments to outdoor garden areas in rustic lake houses in California. The stone sinks can “float” on a wall or be integrated into a counter.

We became even more enamored with traditional troughs as sinks after seeing Tramuntana Farmhouse, the idyllic home of Leigh and Pille Morgan on the Balearic island of Mallorca. The trough sinks complement the Spanish stone used throughout the home, while creating sculptural focal points in each space.
