Hi there, did you mean to attach photos? I don't think they posted. I know this is from a while back but I'm interested to hear what you ended up choosing.

there is many types of support to be used for counter top for long lasting work... as ... 1) brick wall which takes 2" , 4" or 6" thickness space which is not good for below space as we will waste space for storage under counter... this is used where heavy material is used on top of counter for cutting any food items... 2) marble support... which will take 35mm thk space double support... 3) furniture base if the kitchen working person is using the sink properly for washing purpose and the gaps between the sink and counter top has to be sealed properly for leakage free to avoid any damages for below storage, as i will not prefer this in other area... this can be used only in foreign countries...

Is it burgundy granite? I think we need to see it. I like gray with burgundy.

the sink should be at 33" from the floor. your countertop height will depend on if you're using a top mounted or insert sink
