Granite

A natural igneous stone quarried in slabs and polished for use as a kitchen countertop material. Granite offers exceptional hardness, heat resistance, and unique one-of-a-kind patterns formed over millions of years. Each slab is unique in color, veining, and mineral composition. Granite requires periodic sealing to maintain stain resistance and is one of the most enduring premium countertop choices.
