François & Co.'s Kitchen Hoods are also available in copper and pewter finishes. These gorgeous designs provide exceptional workmanship in these fine metal finishes that add an opulent accent to any home's culinary setting.
Also on display at the Las Vegas Show will be two magnificent hand-crafted Scagliola Stone soaking bathtubs. François & Co.'s bathtub collection features several designs which combine elegant style with contemporary flair. All the Scagliola Stone bathtubs are hand-made, thus have unique personalities and one-of-a-kind charm. Attractive and durable, they have a natural sophisticated quality that transforms any functional bathroom into a haven of comfort and luxury.
As rich in texture as it is in history, Scagliola is a technique developed by impoverished Italian monks in the 17th Century to restore a monastery lost in the mountains of central Italy. It is the art of mixing together chips of stone (Scaglia in Italian), and layering the mixture by hand to achieve a natural stone texture of amazing clarity and depth, very similar to that of quarry stone.
Thierry François, the owner and chief designer of Francois & Co. began offering hand-crafted Scagliola products in the US in the late 1990's. Since that time, the Scagliola technique has become well known and respected among homeowners, as well as the design, architectural and
builder communities as an authentic alternative to lesser cast stone and concrete products.
