Wow -- absolutely beautiful! Their sinks are just gorgeous and was very much splurge-worthy! We got our counters from Buck's last week so I can truly understand how happy you must be. Congrats!

Really really pretty, love your veining! We are scheduled for templating from BCS on 9/23, can't wait! We also splurged on the block sink/bow front/scoop, so cool.

Love your blue island too!

Isn't it great when everything turns out so wonderful??!! Beautiful stone and the workmanship looks amazing. Love both sinks. Your island slab reminds me of a night in Arizona during a lightning storm. Congrats.

What hardware are you using? It is beautiful!!!

WOW!! How did I miss this post? The counters are absolutely stunning, and the whole kitchen is simply gorgeous. I can't wait to see your finished kitchen pics!

stunning. and since i'm backsplash obsessed and you have the same white cabs and soapstone that we're doing...what are you doing for your backsplash? (can anyone tell this f)(*)*_() backsplash is kicking my bum?)

ebean - we did carrara marble for the backsplash. Will try to post some update pictures tonight. We had originally planned to just do white subway, but our designer recommended the carrara for its depth and we've been super pleased with how it is turning out. It is a great transition between the counters and the cabinets and we didn't have to worry about trying to be matchy-matchy with the white of the cabinets.

Wiping the drool from my keyboard :) Your kitchen is absolutely stunning! Love the veining on the island.

For those asking about our backspash, here's an updated picture of the rangetop area that shows the regular size tile and the smaller ones we used:

OMG your counters & BS are soooooo gorgeous!!! And I love your blue island. And those sinks were definitely worth it! I can't wait to see the finished pics!!!

It's just GORGEOUS! We also have white (BM Dove Gray) cabs and soapstone counters. Thinking about doing a marble backsplash, so it's nice to see how great yours turned out. We have Julia soapstone (subtle green veining), and we're looking at Calacatta Gold mosaics for the backsplash--to tie the wall color (BM Edgecomb gray) with the island color (BM Fieldstone).

Just thought you should know I am totally stealing your blue accent piece idea!! (Imitation is the highest form of flattery) I am painting a craigslist find, beautiful china cabinet/ hutch, a blue as close to yours as I can find, thank you for the beautiful idea! Your kitchen is GORGOUS!!!

On the island color, our cabinets are CWP - the color we chose was tidewater and then had black glaze added to it (antique finish maybe? can't remember!) to make the color more muted. Here's the CWP link:
