Yes, love them. They are susceptible to chips and cracks over time, but that just adds character!

Yes! No staining, minimal etching, they stay cool and look cool. We have a couple of dings in the surface from hard objects (i.e. can falling out of cupboard) but not noticeable unless you're looking for them.

Thank you. I'm thinking of honed rainforest green counters for the new build we're planning. I'm thinking they would be gorgeous with quartersawn oak or cherry in a craftsman kitchen.
