Granite comes in various colors, making it one of the most versatile materials for kitchens. However, it would be best to consider some aspects before installing countertops made with this rock, for example, which color best combines with your kitchen elements. For instance, you should consider the color of your cabinets to avoid an environment with little harmony and unsightly.
Cabinets’ color must match the rock color. It is one of the basic principles in kitchen design. For example, there are white cabinets in many places because this color suggests timelessness, cleanliness, and freshness and gives the kitchen a brighter look. In addition, white can go well with various granite patterns. However, most people choose the same colors.
Other bolder colors can go perfectly with white cabinets and add originality to your kitchen. In Maga Marbles and Quarries, we recommend opting for the following.
Alaska White
It is a crisp-looking color named after the bright white mineral formations that look like ice. Accented by ebony feldspar veins and translucent quartz scatter, it is an original choice for white cabinets. It has a limited palette, but it also has a deep pattern that will add a unique visual experience to kitchens and even bathrooms with light cabinets. You can go for similar options like Juparana Delicatus, Bianco Antico, or Winter White if you like the color white.
Black Pearl
These granites from India stand out for their deep look with greyish details in a subtle, compound pattern. They are an alternative to Jet or Premium Black surfaces that you should consider if you want a contemporary white and black kitchen. Other similar black granites with discreet patterns are Cambrian Black and Virginia Mist.
Blue Pearl
When combined with white cabinets, the semi-iridescent Blue Pearl granites create a calm and relaxing atmosphere. It is an option to obtain soft and airy sensations. You can use a backsplash to ensure its durability and accessories to make it the centerpiece of your kitchen, no matter if it is traditional or contemporary.
Black Marinace
It’s a perfect color if you want to add a little more drama to your kitchen. Black Marinace granites are conglomerates of polymictic pebbles and feature a unique pattern on the market. It may appear to the naked eye to be an artificial rock, yet it is mined just like any granite. Each embedded “pebble” features a unique pattern, so you will always discover and be amazed by a new detail when using your kitchen.
Also known as Black Mosaic or Black Morgan, it combines with white cabinets and completely black kitchens. If you like its pebble pattern, you can opt for the Green Marinace granite, a similar geological phenomenon with shades of green.
Calacatta Macaubas
It has a similar color to marble, but some mention that it is harder. Its name comes from the veins on its surface that resemble Calacatta marble. It is an alternative to marble for a more practical version of kitchens in European and traditional styles, with white walls and cabinets.
Colonial White
If you want to remodel your kitchen and get a white-on-white look, Colonial White is a great option. Its dark gray and black mineral tips create a slow-moving constellation stretching out over a whitish-cold-gray background. In addition, it is an option that combines perfectly with white cabinets and tiles of the same color, creating an impeccable and contemporary appearance.

Giallo Ornamental
It is one of the most recommended by interior designers. It is a color used for a long time, yet it is still a best seller worldwide. It combines a simple palette of white, black, cream, and blueberry accents in a composite pattern. Pair it with white or cream cabinets for a charming, traditional kitchen.

If you want your kitchen to have an industrial, contemporary and elegant look, you should consider it. You can also enhance its rugged appearance by choosing Steel Gray with an antique finish.
Volga Blue

In addition, it has gray reflective medallions in different sizes, which gives it a subtle yet intriguing appearance. It is perfect to pair with white cabinets if you want a bold and sumptuous look.
