    I only answer, what is the cost of doing the same old same old vs having an island design that pleases you every day with its breathtaking artistic beauty.
    I will be happy to provide a quotation directly for the exact size island you have in mind. Jeff Downing 813 784 5211

    Is this laminated glass ? Or Thermofused glass like ThinkGlass?

    KD;
    Thanks for the inquiry.
    It is Thermofused layers Starphire glass from PPG. Same technique as ThinkGlass. The processing we do on the edge elevates our offerings from others. They use a CNC. It shows lateral lines as a result. We use hand held polishing machines that eliminate any scratching/lines/distortion. It renders the glass optically perfect, and gives an unbelievable look on the edge. Be sure of the glass quality and color before investing. Many brands of glass are out there...most do not have the beauty of Starphire. Many have a dark green hue from the iron impurities. That's Ok if you want green, but trust me...green is a hard color to love once you have seen ours. All pics on website are 1.5" thick which is nominal for kitchen....we can go 1" for bath tops or other well supported elements.
    I suggest the following; go to

    Look at "Kitchen High Bar Naples". This was taken at noon without any flash or interior lighting or photoshop enhancement. This is in my opinion the truest color photo I can offer you of the color of 1.5" Starphire glass.
    If serious, we can mail you a sample to verify the quality of our offering.
    Thanks again and feel free to call 813.784.5211 to discuss
