[quote=Anonymous]If your island is small enough, you might be able to find a remnant slab to use (of marble or any stone for that matter). The problem you're going to run into with marble is that the most common and cheapest is Carrara marble. However, Carrara is white to grey with grey veining. The cool tones of the grey would clash with warm tones in ivory cabinets. Calcutta gold marble is gorgeous with ivory cabinets, but this option is quite expensive (twice as much as Carrara or most granites). Creama marfil marble would look really nice with the wood island and tie in with the ivory cabinets. Since this is a popular option for bathrooms, you could probably find a remnant pretty easily if you made a few calls to fabricators. [/quote]
