These gorgeous designs are part of The Ornamented Life collection by Brazilian designer Joan Meroz. The unique pieces are like jewels for the sink. The metal Lace Drains are functional and dazzling, and transform boring drains into artistic statement pieces.
The Drain Dirt-Catchers are little filters you put inside your sink to stop bits and pieces from going down the drain, eventually plugging it up.
"Performing one of the dirtiest jobs in the house, these hair-catchers are also eye-catchers, adding perhaps a little pleasure to the user when facing the task of doing the dishes or cleaning the sink," the site says.
They're the perfect addition for 'glamming' up basins in the bath or the kitchen.
