Granite comes in a staggering range of colours, many with an attractive movement and some with almost holographic sparkle and intensity of colour.  Granite can be supplied in different finishes - high polish, matt or textured, depending on the application.  Its hard-wearing properties make it ideal for kitchen worktops.

Generally the granite worktops are produced in 30mm thicknesses and can be supplied in 3 different finishes: Polished, Honed and Antiqued

• Polished
  Polished is the most widely used and is the most resilient to stains.

• Honed / Matt
  Honed gives the stone a matt finish, and black honed surfaces are often used instead of slate - granite being much more hardwearing.  The honing process does make the stone more porous and it is therefore slightly more susceptible to staining than a polished finish.

• Antiqued
  Antiquing the stone involves flame texturing the surface and bush hammering it to produce a textured finish which produces a very tactile material.
