I'm still trying to figure out the whole size thing with umbrellas...purchased the 6 footer from Pottery Barn and the across opened measurement is 5 ft!!!??? Is this 6ft or 9ft measurement referring to the poles????

I have been in the stone countertop biz for 10 years...best thing to do: ask for a sample of stone (marble) and take it home to use and abuse! se how it reacts. Then you will certainly know what to expect! I give all my clients a sample to torture and see what to expect! Marble is one stone you should expect will "patina" it's part of it's beauty!

My profession is selling stone- just want to add: White carrara marble is relatively inexpensive, however the calcutta gold pictured and Danby marble pictured are QUITE pricey! Also- I highly recommend honing your marble (this is a matte finish) as it will not show any etch marks that acidic things like orange juice , etc. will leave on a polished (shiny) finish!
