Introducing Cleopatra & The Wave
Featured here in our Calacatta Gold
More colors at www.allstone.net
When Allstone is ready to launch a new stone color or design, owner Robert Israeli offers up his home to become the playground for installation projects. (perks of owning a stone business!) Over the past year Allstone has been in design and creation mode for 2 new IN STOCK waterjets showcasing our popular core line stone colors.
Robert’s bathroom is a definite show piece of many sizes, shapes & innovative design that captures Allstone’s unique stone products we carry. We sat down with Robert after it was finally completed and asked him all about the design process and what he loves most about his luxurious bathroom escape featuring our Calacatta Gold color.

Allstone: Describe the installation process & other material used to bring your bathroom vision to life.
Robert: First install of The Wave & Cleopatra was a success with my installer Alex, from Alux Construction . The Wave was installed on the floor and was an easy install with no complications. We weren’t sure about the Cleopatra with its sharp corners and cuts but it was not difficult.
To save money, I used our 6×12 base around the shower opening instead of slabs. Inside the shower walls we used bars so we have a nice opening, penny rounds on the shower pan and ceiling and ogee molding in the shower. For the makeup area I used our Adelaine Hexagon and 3×12. We used almost all of our Calacatta Gold sizes that we carry. The grout color used was Silverado Wall Unsanded by Tec.
Go Neutral? Not Necessarily.

Allstone: What was your vision when designing the bathroom?
Robert: Wasn’t exactly what I wanted to do but the house can take a classic serious color like Calacatta Gold (Robert lives in a Tudor Style home). The non-traditional shapes of The Wave & Cleopatra made it tricky to design at first. But I am more than happy with the outcome. My bathroom makes me feel exactly where I need to be. Highly recommend this color and these shapes together.
Allstone: What unique pieces were used that could inspire others?
Robert: I used our 6”x12” base all the way around the bottom of the bathroom walls & shower opening as it just looked nicer. Also used bar molding around the arch of the shower opening so we didn’t have to deal with mitering or bullnosing the marble. This allowed me to mix classic and new shapes together that I love.

Allstone: You used Dolomya for the vanity and shower seat – what is Dolomya and why did you decide to use it in this space?
Robert: Dolomya is a unique product from Italy. It has an undulated surface (wave-like look). The wax and sealer are applied by hand and then baked into the stone. It is truly a unique process done by the Italians. We have slabs of Dolomya in our warehouse for sale so I used the color Oyster as it has great interactions with the gold. I used it for the vanity, shower seat, counter top and radiator frame – which I think is genius as it hides the metal looking frame.

Allstone: How does the bathroom make you feel when walking into it everyday?
Robert: Every morning I walk in and I can’t believe it’s my bathroom! Overall it looks bigger as we removed the tub and added in 2 sinks. The luxury touches include heated floors, heated towel rack & wall mounted TV. It’s like walking into a 5 star hotel bathroom.
