Bold, one-of-a-kind slabs with dramatic veining and color, planned and installed as the star of the room.
Some slabs stop you in your tracks: swirling blues, deep greens, bold golds, crystal-studded patterns and dramatic veining. These exotic and statement stones can turn an island, a bar or a vanity into a piece of art. They also take more planning, because the pattern, the pieces and the placement matter, and because these slabs are often unique and expensive. Homeowners in Nashville who want a signature surface ask us to help them plan it.
We visit the slab yard with you or bring slab photos and measurements, and we plan how the slab will be cut so the pattern flows where you want it. We often create bookmatched layouts, where adjacent pieces mirror each other, and plan waterfall edges and backsplashes from the same slab. We discuss the stone honestly, including hardness, porosity and care. Fabrication takes extra care, and we protect the slab through every step, from the yard to installation.
Every move in the layout matters, so we map the cuts before we cut anything.
Mirrored pieces and continuous veining create drama, and need careful planning of seams and edges.
Exotic stones vary in hardness and porosity, so we ask about sealing, etching and heat.
Handling, transport and fabrication are planned carefully, and we recommend photographing the slab first.

You tell us what you want or what your counters are doing, and we set an estimate visit that fits your day.
We look at your cabinets, layout and walls, talk through materials, edges, sinks and seams and note any prep that is needed.
You choose the material, slab and details, receive a plain written scope and approve it before anything is ordered or cut.
We template your cabinets exactly, then the countertops are cut, shaped and polished to fit, with openings made for your sink and cooktop.
We remove the old tops, set the new ones level, join the seams, seal where needed and set the sink and backsplash.
We clean up, haul away the old countertops if you asked, walk you through the finished work and explain how to care for it.
Rare colors, dramatic patterns and limited supply. The category includes quartzites, agates and unusual marbles.
Some are, since they can be softer or more porous. We explain the care for each.
Yes. A bar front, vanity or backsplash can show off an exotic slab at a smaller scale.
Natural fissures are common. We discuss which are cosmetic and which affect strength.
Early. Rare slabs can take time to find and fabricate.
