New material - need name suggestions please

Post by fernandosalume » Fri Oct 07, 2011 1:10 pm

Hello everyone,

We are about to start quarrying this new material here in Brazil and we don't have a name for it yet. Can anyone help us with name suggestions please?

Also, if you could give us your opinion about this color, it would be great. If the price is good, do you think it would sell well?

It would be an exclusive material from us and we would be able to sell it for very good prices.

Thanks!

Volcano comes to mind when looking at it.
Will not be a easy one to seam, but the color looks good.

Great suggestions so far, thanks!

I like the "Cafe com Leite" idea, it's a Portuguese word which means "Coffee with Milk"!

It looks like a creamier version of Stormy Night from about 5 years ago. It sold well.

The original name had been Tiger Wood, but they were worried about 'issues'. Little did they know :o .

Thank you everyone for all the suggestions!

Our team here at Brothers in Granite has voted for Boyd's suggestion: TIGER WOOD!

If any other suggestion comes up, please let me know, but for now we're calling it Tiger Wood. I hope this material can be any near to the golf champion guy with sales! :lol:

I'll see you all in St. Louis!

How about Melted Tundra. When i look at it, i envision what the future polar ice caps will look like. Just brown with a few hints of lakes or ponds. Maybe i should stop the medication. ( looks like an arial photograph )
