White Stone Counter Tops

White Stone Counter Tops

White Stone Counter Tops

White Stone Counter tops will brighten any room and give it the illusion of being bigger than it really is. There’s a feeling of class and stateliness, contemporary and clean. The disadvantage of white stone counter tops is that natural white stone counter tops are susceptible to scratches and staining especially from acids.
Granite has been popular for a while and is still in the lead. Marble, limestone and soapstone are becoming more popular for the use of kitchen counter tops. Here are some white stone counter top options:

Arctic White Stone Counter tops – quartz is a solid bright white product with no veins or pattern. It is offered polished. Great for interior projects including walls, back splashes, counter tops and flooring.

Carrera White Stone Counter tops – White Carrara marble is a luxury Italian marble in shades ranging from whites to greys with lots of soft feathered veining.

Calacatta white Stone Counter tops- is a rear high end marble desired for its unique characteristic such as dramatic large and very distinct veins.

Yule Marble Stone Counter tops – premium white marble 99.5% pure calcite giving it a very smooth texture and luminous surface.

Quartz Stone Counter tops– are heat and impact resistant with no scratching, staining or need for sealing. Offered are a wide range of colors and patterns including white.

Travertine  Stone Counter tops– It’s a little more high maintenance than other stones so filling and sealing is recommended to protect against staining, trapping food and bacteria. It is beautiful adding warn natural finish to any kitchen!

White Stone Counter Tops:

Marble Stone Counter tops– marble is the whitest stone available for you to purchase. White marble has a clean look and is always-attractive like travertine it’s a little more high maintenance and a suggested alternative is white granite.

Granite White  Stone Counter tops– The composition if granite makes it almost impossible for you to get it in pure white there are flecks of color and variations, however if you can forgo pure white it will be easier to maintain than marble and travertine and the look is interesting.

Alaska White Stone Counter tops- have a smooth finish with a classic elegant feel. Additionally, this marble presents some discreet long red variegated veining on the surface.

Alpine White Stone Counter tops-you will have plenty of options is great for: back splashes, walls, and floors. It is both versatile and durable the flickers of mineral give it beautiful movement and color. Gunmetal grays with ebony accents, on a background icy white.

White Fume Graffiti Stone Counter tops- you will find it to be very hard with a uniform background it is mostly used for exterior flooring. It is a white marble, with a slight grayish tone, and medium grain.

Snow White Stone Counter tops- is an exclusive marble the background is white and beige, it is not a pure white there are undertones of gray and beige. This shade looks great in all types of finishes, we recommend the polished finish.

Some White Stone Counter top alternatives are:
Acrylic composites and engineered quartz surfaces have attractive and durable finishes in a wide range of white shades.

Expensive Marble Stone

Tuesday, 02 August 2016 by
Expensive Marble Stone

Expensive Marble Stone

We have the most Expensive Marble Stone which is Yule Marble it is a premium white marble.

Yule Marble is found in the West Elk Mountains of Colorado discovered in 1873.

Yes that’s correct not only Italy, Greece and Turkey here in the United States we have some of the best marble in the world!

Yule is 99.5% pure calcite giving it a very smooth texture and luminous surface therefore it is beautiful for counter tops, buildings, art, and projects.

Yule’s  size of the deposits allows for large blocks to be quarried, it is a weather resistant marble of metamorphosed limestone.

Henry Bacon urged the Yule Marble be used for the Lincoln Memorial because of aesthetic value in spite of the cost.

Quarrying is a challenge due to high altitude (9,300 feet above sea level), steep slopes, deep snow, and snow-mud slides in the winter.

Even advances in technology have not helped to eliminate these challenges.

This location has 5 quarries and only one is in operation today.

There has been highs and lows with the use of this marble due to the challenges to access.

Yule Marble is found in the Yule Creek Valley in Marble, Colorado.

It is shipped to other parts of the world: Italy, Saudi Arabia, Peru, and other international locations.

The quality of Yule Marble made it the choice for use in the basement of the Colorado Capitol, Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Other buildings throughout the country were also built with Yule Marble.

Yule Marble

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier currently being renovated.

It is made of the largest single block of marble produced in the United States.

Colorado state known for Majestic Rocky Mountains, had no official state rock.

Girl Scout Troop 357 requested that Yule become the state rock.

Yule marble became the “official state rock” of Colorado in 2004 @ the request of Girl Scout Troop 357.

Colorado is the Centennial State.

Each state contributed a 20″ x 40″ rock to line the inside of the monument, Colorado chose the Yule Marble.

Yule can also be found in:

Colorado State Capitol building, Chessman Memorial, Colorado State Museum and the Denver Court House.

I’m sure there are many locations throughout the country and world that utilize this beautiful marble.

Yule Marble has withstood 100 years in DC winter and humid summers.

That makes it a very durable option for any project.

Stone Tile US  has the best selection of marble.
