New @kohler sink with “Pearlized” finish inspired New @kohler sink with “Pearlized” finish inspired by working at Kohler Co.  on the “Scuola Di Pesci” sculpture made for Salone del Mobile 2024 in Milan Italy.

Thanks to Ruth and Herb Kohler for your legacy of inviting artists into the factory to learn and explore the possibilities.
