Granite is an igneous rock having a visible crystalline texture composed of Feldspar and Quartz. It is quiet literally as old as the earth, and is formed of liquid magma, the molten rock still found at the core of the planet, cooled slowly to form a substance approaching the hardness and durability of Diamond.
Granite owes it's hardness and density to the fact that it has been solidified deep within the Earth, under extreme pressure, which makes it resistant to scratching from every day use.
Granite offers a timeless beauty which will really bring the individual characteristics of a kitchen together, can increase the value of your home, and at the same time is more hard wearing than other traditional materials used around the home.
