Domingo the owner actually took the time to discuss our options of stones vs man-made products. Educated two ole ladies in our deep 60's , he was very patient and understanding of our options, totally helped us make some final decisions on the remodel job. We got a bonus on watching the actual fabrication being done, one never realized how much money is invested in equipment and manpower to create these master pieces. My pick for the job at hand is Desert Eagle Stone.
