A bullet proof FUNKY METAL kitchen island top

When my kitchen was being renovated, I wanted something really cool for the island. Teaming up with my artist buddy Dan Sawatzky, we came up with a double sided, radius cornered kitchen island top in distressed METAL.

I love this thing and still smile when I remember my mom coming over and asking when I'll paint it. :) Short answer? NEVER!! :)

    This double sided metal kitchen island top serves double duty. It's a counter and kitchen table all in one. The curvy corners help to visually diminish the size as well...

    The metal was left in it's natural black state. It came out stainless where it was welded and ground down which I fell in love with! The top can be waxed but I left it as is.

    The top is a stand alone that slips overtop a standard kitchen cupboard base. Heavy corbels were fabricated to add some detail.

    What a great material for a countertop! It's bullet-proof. The good lucks are just bonus.
