I am getting a 12ft long curved island with a split level top. The edge is going to be ogee.How deep should the top level be? Is 18" okay or should it be 19"? |

Hi, The whole kitchen has been done over to the bones. I want off white, cabinates. I like the tuscan look. I am looking at a terracotta porcelain tile for the floor, or something with a goldish hew with some of the terracotta looking color in it for the granite counter top. What is a good choice of granite color. Any suggestions. Thank you, |

What color granite goes better with white cabinets, Santa Fe brown or Tropical brown. The floors are dark brown wood.
Thanks |

All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-25 11:39:24 |
joan: I think kashmir gold will give you more of the warmth. The edge on the bar is a laminated edge (two pieces of granite). Top is ogee, the bottom is full bullnose. |
|
Name: joan | Date: 2008-07-22 17:26:43 |
Also, is there a price difference between kashmir and venetian gold light |
|
Name: joan | Date: 2008-07-22 17:23:19 |
my kitchen cabinets are off-white with toasted almond glaze.My floors and backsplash are an off white. Would you suggest venitian gold light or kashmir for my countertops. I am looking for a tuscan feel. I would also like to have the same granite detail as in photo (stone id 287) which I think is ogee. Is the top of bar a different ogee style? |

Thank you,you were a big help. I think I'll go with a darker stone |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-18 11:22:24 |
Anne: Well, two ways to go about this. Either pick a much darker stone, or stain the cabinets to a reddish dark hue. |
|
Name: Anne | Date: 2008-07-17 20:06:39 |
the cabinets are a medium chery and the floor is oak, it just all blended together |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 18:52:16 |
Julie : I'd have to go with a medium to dark gold. If all fails and you want to change the rest, you are free to match it with red, green, blue... whatever you want. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 18:47:45 |
Anne: What color are the cabinets? That might not be such a bad thing if the cabinets are dark. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 18:21:51 |
ann: It depends what you have as the current countertop. It might not be easy but it is somewhat doable. Some cabinetry work may be required (in other words, it might get expensive). |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 17:25:28 |
Belinda: Well, you're picking dark colors, which is good in your scenario. I would probably go with a medium or dark brown. Check out our stone gallery. |

I have white cabinets and gold walls (tuscan), Italian look in my kitchen. We have medium/light wood floors but considering staining a little darker. I\\\'m trying to pick out a granite that goes with the current style of the kitchen will transition when I tire of the tuscan theme. Do you have any suggestions? |

I had picked out an indian gold, but when I came home with a sample, the color totally blended in with the oak floor |

All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-02-21 11:10:00 |
Rose : Short answer - ANY. Most people will go with a bolder color to offset the white. |

Meteorus is the stone and i is predominately black, with gren/gray slivers and plum circles like cherries. It also has silver looking \"brushes\" throught. It is an exotic stone and I found in out in california. I can google it and pics also come up. My concern it is so exotic, it is unusual. Wonder if anyone else has used it? |

What granite would you recommend with a Red Oak cabinet? We are considering the Juperana Picasso (Carmel Brown) but are concerned that it might be too busy for the heavy grain our cabinets have. Our cabinets are stained the color of Rust. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2007-12-17 10:28:27 |
Kim: Yes. If you have a considerable amount of light in the kitchen, you could afford to go even darker. |

Dark cabinets call for lighter color of the granite. Travertine sets us towards the warmer tones. I would look in Kashmir Gold, Madura Gold, Golden Oak, Golden Valley area. :) |

That depends on size of your kitchen. Unless it's a large, bright kitchen I would go with something light and creamy background with hint of Burgundy to complement the cabinets. Maybe Shivakashi Yellow?

You can easily go for granite that is gold or brown so that it will pick up the gold in the floor. Tropical Brown is a good choice. |

Not sure how dark or light your cabinets are... either way, go with something that contrasts and try to pick up the color of the floor. Golden Rock perhaps? |
