Granite

Granite is a widely occurring group of intrusive rocks that form underground at great depth and pressure. It is composed primarily of quartz, feldspar, and mica. The stone gets its incredible variety of colors and patterns from minerals that are melted into a liquid mass during formation. With its deep rainbow colors, granite offers that elusive, one-of-a-kind beauty created only by nature. The stone comes in various colors and stylish patterns, making it the most versatile and trendy of all stones. Granite allows it to be highly polished to expose its natural characteristics, honed for a matt finish, or flame-textured for an aged, antique look. These finishes are sometimes combined to produce interesting patterns and features—ideal for kitchen countertops and vanity tops.
