Caroline: Does not stain as Carrera, but it's not bulletproof either. You still have to be careful. I'd suggest to seal it every six months if you're considering it for a kitchen, to be on the safe side. |

Robin: Driving up to our showroom should be the first thing on your list! That way you would have a better idea of what's available. Mind you, only a part of the selection is photographed for the website. Either way, Polar white is more of a cream really. I'm not sure how that would go with the grey cabinets. They might clash a bit. |

I just found a gray paint darker graphite that I may use for kitchen cabinets. They will be somewhat old world, early american style, slightly European but in no way modern. Lots of cuts square and like crown moulding to give you an idea. I do not want any specks of color, only veining, am leaning away from the marble as my friend\'s stained with red wine. White Fantasy OR Polar White Granite ?????? And is there anything else. I am driving up to your showroom next ! |

Robin: I appologize. This whole time I failed to notice that White Fantasy is a granite, not a marble. My mistake. Yes, White Fantasy is pretty much as close as you can get to Carrara looks wise. |

Because we are talking about my kitchen here and you cautioned against using marble in said room. And the kitchens I am seeing Carrara marble in are real working kitchens. Check out all the latest magazines. If I decide to use granite, which granite most closely resembles Carrara marble ? |

Robin: Why not Carrara itself? |

Thank you. How close to Carrara marble does that white fantasy granite look ? Anything closer to the look of Carrara ? |

Robin: The biggest issue is not whether marble can or can't be used in the kitchen. Who are we to stop you? The problem is that most people that want marble in the kitchen, don't want the problems associated with it. If you want White Fantasy for your kitchen - go for it. Just make sure you know what you're getting yourself into and be aware that you won't be able to keep the marble "perfect". |

I am doing gray-graphite darkish cabinets. I really wanted Carrara marble but everyone including one of your sales persons told me forget marble in the kitchen. Although in every very fine magazine, they are now doing marble as kit countertops. It is very prevalent ! BUT-what white/gray vein, no speckles granite would best resemble the marble look I desire ? |

Carol : Seems like you're going for the classic "marble" look. Not much to add. You're doing great. |

I have white cabinets and golden oak hardwood floors. I am looking for a white granite - I like the Classic White Fantasy, Biano Romano and Colonial Gold. Any advice or suggestions? |
