This massive, dense, versatile material has gained widespread use throughout human history. Gray granite can be carved in a variety of textures, from a rustic, rough-chiseled surface to a contemporary, high-polished one. For those who like the smooth finish of the polished but want a matte look, this would be a honed finish (matte).
Because this material is born from molten magma and forms over hundreds of years, some natural mineral deposits are to be expected. These show up as round or irregular-shaped anomalies that are silver, gold or copper in color. These anomalies are generally small but can range up to approximately one inch in diameter (about the size of a quarter). These inclusions are a part of the makeup of the natural stone.
This stone is a good choice for custom designs.
Fun Fact: An igneous rock is a rock that solidified from molten rock. This is in comparison to the two other major types of rock, sedimentary and metamorphic.
