• Duro-Design claims to offer "more colors of cork than anyone else." (With a claim like that, it's got to be true, right?) Indeed, they have 58 colors; most have a slight earth undertone, which we like.
• Cortica is at the upper end of the price spectrum, retailing on the West Coast for $11-$12 a square foot. But it's got a multi-layer, deep finish that has to be seen to be appreciated. And you can get metallics: these would be a stunning foil with understated, flush front, low-gloss oiled natural wood cabinetry.
• Solida also makes colored cork in both solids and metallics and should be a mid-range option.

These and other less colorful cork suppliers can be found at our top 10 cork suppliers post. Readers, do you know of any other options for Lauren?
