Remnants

Remnants: exceptional stone, small project, sensible price.

A remnant is what is left of a slab after a larger job is cut. It is the same stone, from the same block, with the same quality — there is simply less of it. For a powder room vanity, a bar top, a fireplace hearth or a laundry counter, a remnant lets you use material that would be extravagant across a full kitchen.

What remnants are good for

Ideal projects

  • Powder room and single-sink vanities
  • Bar tops and butler's pantries
  • Fireplace hearths and surrounds
  • Laundry and mudroom counters
  • Window sills, thresholds and shower seats
  • Console, side and coffee table tops
  • Cutting boards, trivets and pastry slabs

How it works

  • Stock changes constantly — what is here this week may be gone next
  • Bring your dimensions; we will tell you honestly what fits
  • Priced by the piece rather than by the square foot
  • Same fabrication and installation as any other job
  • Viewing at the Bridgeport yard by appointment

The genuine advantage

A remnant is where a client on a normal budget gets to use a genuinely rare stone. A dramatic Calacatta or an unusual quartzite that would be difficult to justify across forty square feet of kitchen becomes entirely reasonable across a six-square-foot powder room vanity — and in a small room, a bold slab has more impact than it would in a large one.

This is the single best-value thing in our yard and the least known. Most people never think to ask.

A note on honesty

Remnants are limited by definition. If a piece will not work for your project we will say so rather than talk you into a compromise that needs an unnecessary seam. And if you are pricing a full kitchen, remnants are not the route — you want continuous material from slabs reserved together so the veining reads as one piece.
