If your kitchen lacks enough cupboards to store things, a kitchen island may solve your problems. A kitchen island can do more than give you a center prep area. It can provide extra open and closed shelves, drawers, and even clever organizing options like a spice rack or wine rack. They can also be more than functional. We've chosen four beautiful wood kitchen islands that are stained or painted with a dark finish. The dark finish creates contrast with any white or light wood perimeter cabinets, making it a focal point in your kitchen.

At 52" long by 24" wide, this dark wood-stained kitchen island can fit in a smaller kitchen area. Keep 42" between the front of your perimeter cabinets and all sides of the island.

The handy size of this dark kitchen island stands on four wheels. Two of them are lockable, and they can all rotate 360°. This lets you easily move it anywhere you need.

Crafted from authentic reclaimed red oak from the 1800s, this dark wood kitchen island shows natural wood knots and grain. Even though the countertop is made from a durable laminate, it looks just as rustic as the rest of the island. Keep the look going by displaying lots of natural wood in the rest of your kitchen with live edge cutting boards and wood bowls.
Solid and practical kitchen island with a durable base made of dark wood. Its granite top is spacious and very functional and it includes a sink. The whole island looks very nice among white cabinets and brown floor.
