One big sheet of super-thick commercial-environment vinyl. There's no top layer; it's this colour and random pattern all the way down. Expensive, but I needed so little that it became worth it. (You can spend more per unit if the unit count is small, which it is here. Very small.)

In this environment, it'll last decades.

Ha ha I managed to miss some detail of the whole process and somehow thought they were made from THE SAME MATERIAL. Good job!

oh no - the countertop is formica-like material from 1958. I with you could still get that now, it's lovely.
