Big island in Calacatta Gold, finished with an ogee edge and an overhang for seating.

Some kitchens are built around the island, and this is one of them. We recently fitted a lovely big island in Calacatta Gold, finished with an ogee edge and an overhang for seating.

Calacatta Gold has a soft white background with bold grey and warm gold veining. On a large island you get the full sweep of that pattern across one surface, so it becomes the feature of the room.
The overhang carries the worktop past the cabinets to leave room for stools, which turns the island into somewhere to sit and chat as well as cook. The ogee edge adds a decorative curve that softens the stone and gives it a classic finish.

Fancy something similar? Call in to our Baildon showroom to see Calacatta Gold in person and talk through your plans.
