Have you looked into cement countertops?
I'm not advocating, just curious. I've just recently learned of them and am intrigued by the concept.
We have concrete counters in our kitchen - I quite like them, but you do have to be careful with anything acidic. Terrazzo is cement with chips of glass and/or marble embedded, then ground flat.
