Statement Stonework

Oynx Marble & Granite provides endless top-quality selections for kitchens and bathrooms.

With its deep black background and striking white veining, the polished Skyfall granite topped island is a showstopper in this suburban kitchen. To source, fabricate, and install the counters in their new kitchen, the homeowners contracted Onyx Marble & Granite. A family-owned business with 20 years of industry experience, Onyx showcases a vast selection of high-quality stone in its Framingham showroom.

The island features a dark wood base. Paired with the multi-faceted dark granite top, the piece is the focal point of the room, which features white cabinetry, walls clad with subway tile, and brass hardware. The island’s bold stone top adds wow-factor and “gives that final touch” to the room, says Jose Moraes, president of Onyx Marble & Granite. “A lot of people tend to go with very simple colors and this particular stone goes beyond the usual.”

Much more subtle in contrast to the granite island, are the kitchen’s surrounding calacatta retro marble counters. With a milky white background and deep gray veins running through, the counters seamlessly flow into the cabinetry and a honed finish leaves them matte and smooth.

In addition to its stellar stonework, the communication the Onyx Marble & Granite team provides to their clients sets them apart from other companies, according to Moraes. “We try to be there for them at all times, answering questions as fast as we can and that makes us a little different.”
