Gary,

Thanks! That's what I was wondering, if it was done on site with a paint brush or in a paint shop. It's sometimes hard to tell on a photo. It's really amazing work.!

No, it is not a Minwax stain. It is an oil finish. Again, since it was prefinished, I don't know all of the finish details.

There are several places to get lights like these. The ones in this photo are semi custom from New Metal Crafts in Chicago:

They are old fixtures. I got them at a great store called South of Market here in Atlanta. www.southofmarket.biz. They have great antique fixtures.

The Cabinets and the Trim are the same color, Gettysburg Gray, from Benjamin Moore, with a Satin finish. The wood walls behind the range are painted French Canvas (also Benjamin Moore) in a flat finish.

@princessgrace: This is from memory since it has been several years since I built that house. The counters are 36" high. I know the shelves are 12" deep and I'm guessing the overall width of the unit is +/- 40".

I got them here in Atlanta at the Scotts Antique Market several years ago. I think that vendor may still sell them though. I have no idea of how to get them other than go to the show, which is the 2nd weekend of each month.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Laura Gaskill added this to Budget Decorator: 16 Ways to Bring Summer Into Your Kitchen
13. Curate your cookbooks. Keep things easy and inspiring by sorting through your cookbooks and setting aside volumes that you know you won't use during warmer months (winter soups and stews, I'm looking at you). At the first nip in the air this fall, you can go grab that box of books and swap out the summery ones.
Becky Harris added this to The Cure for Houzz Envy: Kitchen Touches Anyone Can Do
Pull out the cookbooks. You may not have a custom-built island with designated cookbook space, but that doesn't mean you can't display cookbooks. There could be room on an open shelf, on top of the refrigerator or even on the counter.

What Houzzers are commenting on:

temkincc added this to Kitchen Ideas
want bookshelf/wine storage on other side of island
Michelle Smith added this to Michelle's Ideas
open shelving at end of island for cookbooks
Isabelle Stanton added this to MV Garage and Remodel
Just realized I’d love to have a spot planned in the kitchen for books. My cookbooks right now are tucked away at the end of the hall where they are doing no one any good.
