"This is a beautiful  piece that I am very pleased with.  I particularly like the different textures and colors that are intrinsic to slate and bamboo.  The slate in this piece has a dramatic range of colors on the top surface ranging from reddish browns to warm golden hues.  The underlying layers of slate are comprised of darker grey strata which dramatically frame the piece.  "
