We picked it up from Provence; ready turned, complete with separate pillar. The stone is beige in colour, but has exactly the same look. But probably a lot softer.Cro Magnonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06840670227576695352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-84379067038438706432011-04-08T11:56:46.958-07:002011-04-08T11:56:46.958-07:00P.S.

Throw in a...Prison hulks! What fresh hell is this?<br /><br />Throw in a war or two (with the resultant problematic returning soldiers), serious shortfalls in real estate set aside for incarceration, an over-imaginative, over-politicised police force, and prison hulks groaning with the weight of class-ignorant underachievers and what do you get? <br />Once upon a time it was a free trip for a term of 7 or 14 to the antipodes.<br /><br />I like the vacume cleaner line, and I love the idea that stone is imbued with the stories of its landscape home. Stone is like honey perhaps - a tangible essay on the quirks of its origin.
