I thought it was partially gift wrapped - why have the pattern on one side and off center?
I noticed the same thing. I think it looks a bit off because the centre of the X isn't centred on the patterned square. If you look at how it drains into the trap on the left you can see why it's necessary to off-centre the X, but it kinda throws off the pattern.
I like the patterned square on the right and the unpatterned trap on the left, and I also like the centre drain idea, but the two don't quite line up together. That's probably what OP meant when they said they aren't 100% happy with it. Still a great piece regardless though.
The drain will look great full of orange or lemon juice.
