Glass vanity countertops?

8 years ago
last modified: 8 years ago

We're embarking soon on a small, narrow master bath addition to our tiny 1870 home. We'll have a long 8' double vanity with a makeup area centered but at the same height. I'm not really interested in marble; I've had that twice over 15 odd yrs and don't want to deal with it's issues/re-polishing. Also cost/waste comes into it since I'll need every single inch of a full slab for length but wouldn't use more than prob 1/3...but WILL pay for it. We have LOVED our soapstone kitchens but the oils and other "stuff" that I use will probably find a way to land on the counter and then I've got a splotchy countertop thing going...on just 1 side. :) Those with soapstone know what I mean. This doesn't bother me much in a kitchen but I think it will jump out more in a bath...or cause more maintenance than I'm interested in. I can however get a long remnant of soapstone from a top fabricator nearby at a reasonable cost.

So, I started thinking about tempered textured glass, recyled glass with built in sinks. (Not interested in vessels) Has anyone gone this route and have input on cost and overall experience?
