    Bit hard to tell from those pics, but will be either Caeserstone or Corian, my guess would be Corian

    Default BenchTops

    Sorry about the quality of the pics! It feels like stone as it is worn where you do the dishes and is not new at all, I am guessing at least 30 -40 years old?

    Thanks so much for the links I am off to check them out.

    Default Terrazzo

    I agree with Brickie, looks like terrazzo to me.

    Terazzo.

    The new "in" name for terazzo is polished concrete.
