Well that is an interesting combo Dagny...I have a stone surface one that I wonder if I should paint...and I've been struggling with it!

Oh my, that's um......interesting. Personally, not my cup of tea. But it's a great conversation starter :-)

Oy vey!  Looks like the cheaped out.  Brick is very dated, too.  Stone seems to be the preference here and/or slate.

Dagny - that is an interesting combination.  I don't have a preference.  I like brick or stone.

Stone or slate seems to be the preferred here also, but this was interesting ...
