5 Of Our Favorite Granite Colors For White Cabinets

White cabinets continue to be a favorite for many. They're becoming even more popular because they bring a fresh, light, and cheerful vibe to any home, and they go beautifully with almost any style or color. It’s no wonder they’re such a timeless choice!

Let’s be honest—white is a fantastic choice that complements any style, whether you're into modern, farmhouse, or traditional decor. The only tricky part? Picking the perfect granite countertop, since so many beautiful granite countertop colors match your lovely, white cabinets!

Ultimately, choosing the right mix of materials and colors is key to achieving your desired look and style. While this can be challenging, we’ve compiled some inspiring kitchen designs that you might want to mimic. To help you get started, let’s explore five of our top granite options for white cabinets.

Colonial White

Colonial White Granite

White granite isn't perfectly white, so an all-white kitchen doesn't look stark. For example, Colonial White Granite from India features pale grey, cloudy silver, and black speckles, showcasing natural beauty.

Nestled above white cabinets with warm cream walls and backsplash, the gentle pattern of muted colors on the granite countertop brings just the right touch of detail to this usually monochromatic kitchen.

Eclipse

Eclipse Granite

The striking black and white veining in the granite countertop really catches the eye and creates a bold statement, beautifully contrasting with the matte cabinets. Yet, it still feels balanced and harmonious within this modern kitchen design.

Eclipse granite's lively patterns add a charming touch of moodiness to what might otherwise be a simple design. Even in this cozy kitchen space, the striking veining on the granite countertop and behind the cooktop brings a bold, artistic flair. Whether matched with black cabinets like in this example or combined with natural or dark wood cabinets, it helps create a truly unique and inviting atmosphere for your kitchen.

Absolute Black

Absolute Black Granite

A black-and-white design always remains timeless. However, with natural stone, you won’t find a completely solid color granite countertop. Still, this granite gets pretty close!

Absolute Black granite countertop anchors the kitchen with its rich, ebony depth, its surface scattered with delicate flecks of gold, brown, green, silver, and gray that shimmer under the light. The high-gloss polish heightens its dramatic presence, while a cream backsplash softens the contrast. Paired with striking aqua blue cabinets, the palette evolves beyond classic black and white, introducing a refined vibrancy that feels both sophisticated and unexpected.

Alpine White

Alpine White Granite

Remember that any granite color appears different when placed against various shades of white. For example, Alpine White from India features a subtle mix of pale silver and frosty whites. It is commonly paired with warm neutrals and onyx tones. In this kitchen, the stone is set against a striking white stone wall, creating texture and brightness, while the Alpine White countertop contrasts beautifully with the black cabinets and silver handles. Medium-tone natural stone floors further balance the design, adding warmth to the overall look.

Silver Falls

Silver Falls Granite

Because white colors and granite countertops offer both warm and cool tones, it’s a good idea to match the tone of your granite countertop with the other elements in your kitchen. This way, you can create the look you love.

Silver Falls Granite is a stylish choice from Brazil that beautifully blends shades of gray, greige, and beige, creating a calming and versatile neutral look with a lovely swirling pattern. It pairs wonderfully with the cloudy white cabinets, nickel pulls, stainless appliances, and the contrasting lighting hardware, complementing each element with its gentle elegance. 

Granite can enhance the natural beauty of a white-on-white kitchen by adding visual interest or serve as a striking focal point with your white cabinetry. Although these are just a few of our preferred granite colors, MSI provides a broad selection of granite slabs to choose from.

Don't hesitate to try something new, as matching any granite color with your white cabinets is generally safe. For additional tips and tricks on choosing a countertop, see this article on coordinating granite colors in the kitchen.
