bathed in a {golden} glow

Last week I was in Ann Sacks and absolutely fell head over heels in love with Michael Smith's gilt tile. I eagerly asked the cost of this magical tile and of course it was not (and probably will never be) in my price range. Ok, maybe a bathroom covered floor to ceiling in gold would be just slightly over the top but still who wouldn't want to unwind at the end of a long day submerged in a bathtub with a golden glow being cast being over you?!

...one day perhaps! However, until then I would be elated to just have a little hint of gold in my bathroom in the form of a lovely mirror...
