Small pieces, big character
Granite Remnant Countertops
When a large kitchen is cut from a slab, pieces are often left over. Those remnants are real granite with the same polish and durability, just in smaller sizes.
For a small project, a remnant can be a sensible way to get natural stone into a space that does not need a full slab.
Matching a Remnant to Your Project
Remnant availability changes constantly, and colors come and go. The key is knowing your dimensions so you can tell quickly whether a piece will work.
Remnants are best for projects without seams. A vanity, a desk, a laundry folding counter or a fireplace hearth are classic fits.

Questions to Ask About a Remnant
Check for natural fissures or chips along cut edges, and confirm the piece is large enough once the factory edge is trimmed.
Ask whether matching backsplash material is available from the same remnant before committing.
