I'm in Florida Rebekah and for some reason, it seems everything is a giallo here. It's important for people not to get too hooked on a name or a photo of a stone. All of those decisions have to be made at a stone yard as you stand in front of the slabs that you'll end up using.

Check out our website at http://www.fireplacecarolina.com -- look through the Granite Colors category. There are so many different colors and shades of lighter colors, I'm sure you will find the one you are looking for.

I know they were selected from Modern Hardware in Grand Rapids, MI. Sorry! That is all the information I have on them.

Depends on you, your house, your finances and your neighborhood.
There is such a thing as overimproving a house: If you have a builder-basic tract house - adding granite counters with no other updates is like wearing pearls to WalMart...
...and if you're in a region or neighborhood where housing values are dropping like rocks from the sky, foreclosures are rampant, boarded up windows are the norm and local jobs are being swept off to China - no amount of home improvement is going to add value to your home.
And finally - If you can't pay cash to make improvements to your home, now is the wrong time to go further into debt to improve a depreciating asset.
I'd say that unless you plan to stay there and enjoy your home for the next 10-20 years - Don't bother spending major money on big home improvements because you won't see a 100% return on the money spent in the short-term.

That appears to be a granite counter and the stone is called either Bianco Romano, White Palmas or White Spring; depending on where you are located. Granite doesn't have standardized names so they may vary.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
Lisa Frederick added this to Kitchen Countertops 101: Choosing a Surface Material
GranitePros: Granite's beautiful mottling and the host of colors and patterns found in nature make each piece one of a kind. It stands up well to splashes, knife nicks, heat and other wear and tear. Cons: Like most stone, granite must be sealed every so often to avoid stains. And its heaviness means you'll need very sturdy cabinet boxes to support the weight.Cost: $35 to $100 per square foot, installed

This particular granite looks like Bianco Dolce or Mayfair White, both from India
