Zinc Countertops

Zinc countertops can provide both a classic and a modern look that combines the cool tone of stainless steel with the charm of a living metal surface. Commonly found in Parisian bistros, oyster bars and butler’s pantries, zinc is a charming metal that adapts to any kitchen style.

Characteristics of Zinc Countertops:

  • Zinc is a reactive metal with a living finish.
  • Its blue-gray tone reflects a country charm and a casual elegance.
  • Zinc will acquire a patina and change with age and use.
  • This patina will take about a year to fully develop, and will continue to evolve throughout the life of the top.
  • We can create a patina in our shop prior to installation.
  • This patina finish will be darker than a natural patina and will have a more even surface initially.
  • Like a natural patina, the patina finish is not permanent and will continue to evolve and develop a pattern of use over time.

Zinc countertops are easy to maintain and clean. Daily cleaning can be done with Windex or any other non-abrasive household cleaner.
