Hello there and thank you for your kind words. The countertop is slab of Pierre Brune (Walker Zanger's name for the brown limestone). I would try to avoid using a countertop material that comes as tile pieces as grout lines get very nasty, quickly. If budget is an issue (and really... when is it not?) Spend less on your backsplash to enable the purchase of a slab countertop material for fabrication. The good news... limestone's price point is really reasonable compared to Calcata marble or even Caesarstone. Happy Designing!

Hi There! Shelly from Amoroso Design. The countertop material is Pierre Brun from Walker Zanger. Happy Designing!

It would be pointless to have it mounted too low to use with the oversized pots it's intended to fill...

That looks like a Rohl to me.

Thermador ....

I just got the Thermador Range 2 days ago, its great! Never saw the blue knobs.. very nice

Great looking kitchen - those look like a 1x4 Lagos Azul stone or possibly a ceramic that's similar in color. Ann Sacks has something similar in a ceramic, but I think it's stone.
