  • Joanne 02:53AM, Feb 8 2012 I'm having trouble deciding on a granite color. Small U shaped kitchen, with plenty of natural light.  Maple cabinets in a light cinnamon stain with a choc. glaze Black appliances and a cream colored tile floor with the small specks of the cinnamon in the floor. Some of the granite I've looked at looks so peachy or rosy.  Please point me in the right direction.  I don't want the granite and cabinets to just blend into each other.  Thank you.
  • Marble.com - Kinga 06:59PM, Dec 17 2011 Also check out New Colonial Gold, Astoria and Atlantis. Good luck!
  • Marble.com - Derek 08:46PM, Dec 7 2011 Absolutely! I recommend for you to view the following stones in-person and let me know what you think: Brown Alpine, New Colonial Dream, and Crema Bordeaux.
  • Lisa 02:14PM, Dec 3 2011 hello, i have maple cider cabinets, ubatuba countertops, earthy tone mosaic glass tile backsplash and temple beige tile flooring, i want to go with a different colored granite on my island. Could you please give me some color suggestions.
  • Marble.com - Derek 07:14PM, Oct 27 2011 You're welcome. Sounds like you're on the right track.
  • Marble.com - Kinga 11:43AM, Oct 27 2011 Let us know how your visit goes!
  • Lorraine 02:29AM, Oct 27 2011 I think that  you are right.  I viewed them on line and will definitelly check them out when I come in.  Thanks for your help.  Lorraine
  • Marble.com - Derek 06:38PM, Oct 26 2011 Out of the choices you've mentioned, I'm leaning towards the Costa Dorata and African Gold. There stones create the right amount of contrast and warmth to compliment your design nicely. As Kinga mentioned, the "Ivory" family of stones is also perfect for you and that sought after country feel. Good luck!
  • Marble.com - Kinga 12:30PM, Oct 24 2011 Take a look at the Ivory Fantasy, Ivory Exotic and Ivory Gold. I feel these stones would work with your sink and the style of a kitchen you are after. Let me know what you think!
  • Lorraine 02:22AM, Oct 22 2011 I looked at African Gold, Kashmir Gold, Juparana Golden Vyara, and Costa Dorata.  Besides the Whiskey Black Cabinets, and beige tiles for a back splash, I am putting in a stone farmhouse apron sink that it in cream with slight orangey sweeps in the stone on the apron.The The cream color of the stone is very llight but would like to see coppery tones in countertop.  Any suggestion on the granite to look at.  I do like veins in the granite and would like a country look.  Thanks for your help.
  • Marble.com - Derek 02:14PM, Oct 20 2011 Any granite's you've looked at so far that have caught your attention? Do you enjoy lots of dramatic veining and movement or a more subtle, speckled, and consistent pattern in the stone?
  • Marble.com - Kinga 12:28PM, Oct 20 2011 Check out Santa Cecilia Real, New Colonial Dream and Platinum Bahia for a dramatic contrast. Click here for a comparison table http://www.marble.com/material.... Let me know what you think!
  • Lorraine 04:25PM, Oct 19 2011 What color or style granite would go well with  whiskey black or cinnamon colored cabinet?  I would like to do a beige tile backsplash with copper leaf design tiles here and there.
  • Marble.com - Derek 06:22PM, Sep 30 2011 Hello. Please give me some more information, this does indeed sound unusual. What is the name of the stone? Was the granite installed by us? If possible, you sending a picture of the "spots" would be really helpful.
  • Dew61314 05:59PM, Sep 30 2011 I just got new granite countertop but was surprised to see some white SPOTS, in the granite.  NOT part of the coloring, more of a discoloring, like  bleach spots... Why would that be?
  • john 07:51AM, Mar 24 2011 I will be receiving my custom cabinet order in 4 - 6 weeks. The material is maple with a chestnut brown stain. Do I need to wait until the cabinets are installed before making decisions on countertops? This African Beige is a nice contender, what pricepoint per square foot?
    • All Granite and Marble 10:59AM, Mar 24 2011 John : Cabinets must be fully installed for us to come template and install the new countertop. For an estimate on African Beige and our stones, please contact the sales office or use the Online Estimate Tool: www.marble.com/estimate
  • lori 11:14AM, Jan 7 2011 I've been looking at Black Galaxy and some brown varieties, but am trying to look at less expensive options. Do you think Aftircan Beige (522) will go well with white cabinets, SS/black appliances and oak hardwoods or will this be too light?
    • All Granite and Marble 11:52AM, Jan 7 2011 Lori: It's not too light, but it's a stark contrast from Black Galaxy. Perhaps something like Amarello Boreal would strike a nice balance.
  • Shannon 06:08PM, Jun 19 2009 Can the African Beige be used for an outdoor kitchen?
    • All Granite and Marble 11:12AM, Jun 22 2009 Shannon: Yes it can.
