Talk About Packaged!
After reading rave reviews about the "sinkly" beauty, function & overall love affair with Silgranite over stainless steel, the biggest concern I noted was damage from shipping - resulting in return/re-order/ship drama.  I ordered in plenty of time!  Someone was listening -- this sink was literally sprayed in place with a deep layer with insulation foam, then placed in a Styrofoam container & then boxed up.  It could have gone to the moon & back. Getting it out of the "cocoon" was a trip.   Okay, so it's beautiful.  Think brownish bronze with a green cast --just like a familiar  brownish bronze metallic spray paint.  It will work with many tones.  My fabricator picked it up today, laminating of love for the sink & shipping breakage as their only issue with customer's love of this sink.
