GRANITE
Granite is the favorite surface for kitchen countertops due to its high density. It is an igneous rock and is therefore, nearly scratch resistant and can withstand extreme heat.
With granite, you have a huge array of colors to choose from. Granite is a natural rock, and so experiences some of the same benefits of appearance that marble does. Granite is a natural rock so it makes sense that it should come in a large variety of colors and patterns, considering that granite itself is harvested from all over the world. Much the way a person from Brazil looks different than a person from Italy, so will each country's granite.
​
After nature has decided how your granite will be colored and patterned, you get to choose how it will look as a finished product. With options like edging, tiling, backsplashes, and so forth, you have a dizzying number of ways you can customize your granite countertop to be exactly what you envision for your kitchen.
