Jamie, The sink is Soapstone and frabricated in Bucks County Pa. by Bucks County Soapstone. They have a beautiful web site. Take a look! Some one identified the tile and bumble bee as Brittany and Coggs. Mark

Good morning Danielle, The edge profile on this particular top is produced using belt sanders and grinders. Soapstone is considered impervious. Soapstone has very unique characteristics specific to the stone. A great source for information is Bucks County Soapstone in Pa. They have a great web site and can answer any questions you might have, not to mention, a great company to work with. Mark

Do you have any other pictures of the cherry cabinets with the soapstone? - I have existing cherry cabinets and wanted to add marble counters, but have fallen in love with this picture. It is beautiful!

@doradostonedist, thank you for your comment on the soapstone and cherry! I keep seeing white cabinets everywhere, which I love - but I have very high quality old cherry cabinets, and I just can't bring myself to paint them or tear them out and replace them.

What is the distance between the counters (sink/stove)? - I have a really narrow kitchen that I'm wanting to remodel. This is the first kitchen I've seen that has a narrow walkway like mine.

Good morning,

I'm not sure what the distance is between the counter tops, typically we try to maintain 42" alleys. However, we have gone to 36" in some cases. Traffic patterns and usage has alot to do with determining what can work. I hope that helps?

Yes, thank you. Mine is 42" which seemed on the small side to me but I guess it's more common than I thought.

Soapstone type - Is the soapstone gray, green, black, blue? Treated with mineral oil? Etc? I love this look and want to design my kitchen right. I'm pairing it with carrara marble.

Good morning,
The soapstone is dark green finished with mineral oil. We use Bucks County Soapstone for our installations. They are located in Pennsylvania. Check out their website for more details on the actual stone. I hope this helps!

Good morning, I don't recall the exact measurement, however if you can leave between 36 and 42 inches, that will work. I'm not a big believer in that particular placement of the oven as it is not the most convenient access to the oven.

Good morning,

The floor is stone. I'm not sure what the product is. If you take the photo to a reputable flooring show room, they can direct you to comparable materials. Thanks for the compliment and good luck.

It is natural stone. I am not sure of the actual product. The owner visited a tile design company and chose the stone. I hope this helps.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

The Inman Company added this to 8 Cabinetry Details to Create Custom Kitchen Style
Feet. Add some flair to the bottom of your cabinets with decorative feet. Feet are fitted and adhered under the toe kick. Add them to one cabinet for a slight touch of detail or to every cabinet for a cohesive look. If you’re working on a budget, try adding feet to just the sink base or cooktop cabinet to make the piece look like freestanding furniture.Customize your cabinetry with a trusted cabinetmaker
