CaesarStone is an engineered stone that we have been selling. It has many of the same characteristics as granite. Such as the durability of the stone. You can place hot items directly on the counter top, it does not chip or crack easily, and it is easy to clean. However, one of the disadvantages of the stone is the lack of natural beauty. BUT, movement and lack of control is not for everyone. In the larger cities CaesarStone is dominating the markets due to its contemporary characteristics. CHECK IT OUT!

Now that the home show is over, it would be great to get an idea of what everyone thought. Roughly 30,000 people attended this years event, and I am assuming everyone has an opinion. Even if it is just the layout of the home show, favorite house, or the latest trends that can be seen throughout the event.
Many of the houses were patio homes, which is becoming very popular. If people are not aware there is a tax advantage of owning a patio, which is roughly a 40% tax break. So I am curious as to everyone opinion on the event.
I would like to welcome everyone to the Italian Marble & Granite Inc.’s blog. The goal of his blog is to increase awareness about the granite, marble, onyx, & engineered stones. Also, design and architecture are a huge part of our business and we would like to highlight some of the newest trends and things we just love.
