Dear Calcutta Gold Marble Remnant,
I knew from the first time I saw you in person I had to have you. You were snow white and beautiful with your deep gray and gold veining. Sure, you were more expensive than your friend, Carrera, but you matched the tile floor in our guest bath perfectly.
Chris and I had to wait a long time before the nice man from the stone yard could come to our house and make a template of you on our vanity. We decided you'd look best with a 15 inch Kohler undermount sink and 3 1/2 inch backsplashes.
A week later, you were ready to come home!
I was so excited, I took pictures through the window as the nice men drilled the holes for your new faucet.
Here you are in your new home looking absolutely fabulous...
We hope you'll be very happy here.
Love,
Carrie

Gorgeous! I love it too.
Who cares if the marble is happy, *I'M* freakin' ecstatic! (c: It truly is all kinds of yummy...gold and gray veining...*SWOON*...
OMG I love it! Calcutta gold has always been one of may favorite marbles. I wanted to use that same style of marble in our master bath but the slab was literately x10 the price of our second choice. You're so luck to have found it as a remnant!
Oh baby, that looks fantastic. Looking forward to seeing the entire room.
Ohhh.. it looks gorgeous! I've never seen that type of marble before - it's stunning!
If this is a taste of things to come, it is going to be very, very good.

Beautiful!
I love a good adoption story.
Oh, she is beautiful! Totally worthy of a love letter!
Gorgeous! I want to just reach out and touch it! I love the feel of marble.
I was having all kinds of internet problems yesterday. So I'm back today to comment! I know nothing about marble, but I think I want to start familiarizing myself with it even more. What a nice look! Do you have marble anywhere else in your home? I saw a marble backsplash in a kitchen that I really love and I was hooked.
Oh yes, the veining is gorgeous! I sooo want marble in our kitchen but I know it is wayyy out of the budget. Darn. It is so pretty.
Very pretty, Carrie!
Yep, that marble slab just found a very good home. It looks amazing.
Oh happy ending! I think it will be very content in its new home.
Love it! So nice to hear that you are happy with it!
Carrie,
it looks fabulous! Can't wait to see the finished room!
Rebecca
Very nice!
wooooowwww! i love marble and this slab is fantastic!
This looks great. What stone yard did you go to? I live in Westborough, and am starting the plans for a master bath remodel, so I'd love a recommendation.
Hi Jessie, We got it from Sudbury Granite in Mendon, MA.
