Description
This exquisite flower of the cherry tree, Sakura is beloved in Japan and cherished in North America, where a cherry tree in full bloom is the most visually splendid moment of Spring. Sakura captures this magic in mosaic form, with drifting blossoms inset into a swirl of stone. The pattern is also available as Sakura Falls, the same swirling background, free of floral ornament. Sakura is stocked in three colorways - Bianco Dolomiti with blossoms of Vanilla Onyx, Calacatta Bluette, Azul Cielo, and Calacatta Gold; Calacatta Bluette with blossoms of Bianco Dolomiti, Artemisia Grey and Azul Cielo; and Bianco Antico with blossoms of Rosa Perlino, Vanilla Onyx, Turkish Red Travertine, and Rosa Portogallo. Sakura Falls is stocked in honed Bianco Dolomiti, Calacatta Gold, Calacatta Bluette, and Bianco Antico.
