The surface is left with its natural texture — the small pits and channels formed by mineral springs over millennia. A food-safe sealant is applied to protect against stains without filling the pores. The edges are chiseled, not polished — that's where the wabi-sabi lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"vh-section-title\"\u003eAt Home\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIn the bathroom holding soap and a brush.
