just a warning note, marble is really a high maintenance piece. Make sure no water stain, dont put hot items on it. daily wipe the marble.... bla bla bla

but if you really like marble, and if you got the time, find a marble piece and customize it to a table.... it will be more satisfying.....

this is my marble table, one piece marble cut to a table and an island,
when side by side, can see the viens flow from one top to another....

yup..... i did that.... there are plenty of marble warehouse around.....actually customized marble tables are quite common.... they can even do the leg in marble if you want....
cant remember how much i did it.... the island and the table legs were from my cabinet contractor... the marble cut by the marble supplier....
if you want to buy marble, its better to buy exactly the marble u want.... personal preference....

thanks.... maybe the next time i am going to do this is when i am retired.... lol

opsss.... i mean i will do a reno like this again when i am retired
lol
