ISO good Philly-area granite fabricator & bianco antico-like slab
Comments (6)I live in Southern Chester County. I used Stone Masters in Kennett Square. They did fabulous work. (I have BA) In fact I was in there yesterday with a friend looking for her counters. Their prices might not be the cheapest around, but I feel you really are paying for the craftsmanship and you get it from them. Let me know if you do go, I'll tell you whom to ask for. Here is a link that might be useful: Stone Masters...See MoreDelicatus White Granite or Bianco Antico for Peppercorn Cherry..
Comments (13)kitchenaddict-my granite is called golden lapidus and DH and I love it but the delicatus would have allowed me to keep my old appliances which were white. I could have waited to replace them. Unfortunately, the white clashed with my granite so stainless is now sitting in my kitchen-smudges, fingerprints, and all!! The granite is in a category labeled Old World/Tuscan-very earthy colors-butterscotch, caramel, hot fudge brown, black, gray, some white, lots of sparkly things. When I saw the delicatus it was too late but it would have worked in my kitchen. BA is a very nice granite but I like something that's more off the beaten track. I've only seen one other kitchen with my granite on the finished kitchens web site. Haven't seen a lot of kitchens with delicatus but if you google delicatus granite it will bring up a page that has a link to an old post 08/08 talking about this granite with pics. You can see the kitchens of daki, iris16, and dd70. Good luck....See MoreBianco Antico Granite
Comments (2)Hi pumpkin... I really love BA too, but had the same issue with the cinnamon rivers that some slabs have. What color are your cabinets? There are so many rocks out there to chose from.. I went with Delicatus White aka Alaska. Very neutral colors of white, black, taupe, gray... As one person on this forum put it, it's a cousin to Bianco Antico. ... Lots of quartz and mica...I wouldn't call it swirly though...here's a link to my kitchen...Good Luck...picking out the counter was my favorite part!

Comments (1)1/8 will give it a more contemporary/modern appearance. 1/4 is more rounded in appearance making it appear more classic and traditional. If it has a large amount of mica, the 1/8 may be best. The last thing you want is for the mica to crumble off. No sealant on this planet will keep that from happening. I hope this helps....See More- 12 years ago
