Delicatus island
Kitchen islands are a useful and social part of your kitchen. Instead of being stuck with your back to the room, you have space to prepare and cook your good, while talking to your loved ones or enjoying the rest of your wonderfully decorated kitchen.
But islands can be so much more than just another worksurface, they can be stunning pieces of architecture and design.
Add another level to your island to add height and clean lines to your design. Add a table or breakfast bar area to make your kitchen the social hub of your house, or add a sink to make your food preparation easier.
Islands are wonderful areas to really show off the beauty of your granite. The large expanse of surface means that the pattern and colour of your granite will shine. Impress your guests with the uniqueness of the granite you have chosen, ask us where your granite comes from and how old it is, so you can weave a tale to entertain.
Come to our workshop in Wheldrake, York and see the wonderful granites you can choose from to make your statement.

Brazilian Diamond table top
You’ve re-designed the kitchen, you have chosen your favourite granite worktops and you have picked out the flooring, but you still need a kitchen table. Why not match your table to your granite work surfaces? We can do any size, any shape tables to suit your kitchen and requirements.
This beautiful Brazilian Diamond table was chosen to match our clients kitchen worktops and has been finished with the same edge detail. The size of this table really shows off the unique patterns in the granite and will allow our clients to sit 10 around the table easily.
Granite tables are very durable, wipe clean and virtually scratch proof!
We invite you to our showroom in Wheldrake where we have a huge range of Granite Table tops already cut, as well as hundred of granites available to be cut. We look forward to meeting you soon.
Verde Tropical
When you think granite worktops, what do you think?
Hard-wearing? Resilient? Quality? Polished surfaces? Black??
Did you know that granite comes in nearly every colour of the rainbow? Take one of the kitchens we are doing at the moment for example, the clients have chosen the beautiful Verde Tropical granite. A green granite with swirling veins running through it, which is completely unique.
J W Smith would like to invite you all to come to our workshop in Wheldrake, York to see the wonderful range of colours we have available, whether it is for a kitchen, bathroom or fireplace, come and see us and make that change from black!!
Verde Tropical is highly variable and we can not guarantee it will look exactly as above.
Selby Game Fair 2010
Over the Easter weekend, J W Smith’s Directors and trusty Project Manager relocated themselves and various pieces of granite, from the nice warm, dry showroom in Wheldrake, York, to a cold, wet and muddy field in the grounds of Carlton Tower for the Selby Game Fair 2010.
Despite the cold and wet weather, people flocked to the show in their thousands and nearly all were intrigued and fascinated by our wide selection of granite and marble on display.
The Directors had a great time, talking to potential customers, trying out their sales techniques and testing their granite knowledge.
As well as showing off the different types of granite, quartz and recycled glass available for kitchen and bathroom worktops, our stall had a huge range of house signs, pet memorials and granite table tops to entice sales.
House signs and types of granite
Many many leaflets were handed out, contact details taken and granites discussed over the 4 days, and a few customers have already made it over to our showroom in Wheldrake to continue their discussion.
If we met you at Selby, thank you for visiting our site and we enjoyed discussing your project with you. If you didn’t make it to see us at the Selby Fair, don’t worry, we will be showing off our granite, marble, recycled glass and man-made products at the Yorkshire Game Fair in Harewood House on the 30th and 31st May 2010, and we will be very happy to see you there!
