These counters can be customized with a variety of shapes, sizes, thickness, textures, lighting, colors and more! They are limited only by your imagination. Glass can also be added to existing counters, via a standoff or bracket-raised mechanism, which actually attaches a new lifted counter to the old counter. This works great in scenarios where a consumer is adding a new breakfast bar or lounge area to an existing kitchen.
