Granite is an experience
Each
day you come in contact with your countertop
or natural granite surface, you are touching
a part of nature and a part of nature is touching
you. Whether it be the absolutely dramatic
Louise Blue or the sophisticated Nero Assoluto
or Delicatos, granite conveys a message of
beauty all its own; a different story to each
set of eyes reading it.
Natural Granites are quarried all
over the world and as such, the selection is
as vast as the organic colour palette of nature.
Granites are exotic, soft and strong, vibrant
and muted, ethereal and earthy.
Everything about Granite is exciting. Viewing
slabs of granite is an exciting experience.
And having granite in your home is exciting,
for the selection is almost endless and the
design opportunities are immeasurable.
Natural Granite is a balance
of stunning design opportunity and durability.
Granite is not an impractical beauty; it is
durable and strong and is capable of being
shaped into a variety of designs. When
sealed, it stands up to the daily abuses we
put our surfaces through as users.
You must nurture your granite, though not
to an extreme amount. Cleaning after use and
simply wiping up after spills occur should
keep your granite looking beautiful for as
many years as you decide to keep it. Resealing
your granite at least once every five years
will offer you added protection against staining.
You get more than you give when you invest
in granite.
Since
the popularity of Granite has infiltrated the
masses and the granite industry has evolved,
new finishes and textures are beginning to appear
in the marketplace. Cambrian Black in an Antique
Finish is an example of the design-forward presentation
of granite, adding to the design capabilities
of natural stone. Rough River is another form
of textured granite that offers a matte finish
without chemically honing a polished slab. All
of these granite options are available through
your Latitude dealer.
