Colours and patterns
From bright whites with dramatic veining to speckled natural granite. These swatches show the main looks; every slab is different, so ask to see samples.
Carrara-look grey vein
Soft white with fine, feathery grey veining. Classic and calm.
Solid and sparkle white
Clean white with little or no pattern, sometimes with a fine fleck.
Warm greige vein
Grey-beige with soft white veins. Pairs well with dark or wood-tone cabinets.
Graphite and charcoal
Deep grey with light veining. Bold against white or light oak.
Black granite
Near-black with a subtle fleck. Strong contrast and very forgiving day to day.
Salt-and-pepper granite
Light grey speckled with black and white. Hides crumbs and wear well.
Sandy beige granite
Warm beige and brown tones. A natural match for oak and cream cabinets.

Quartz vs. granite
Both are excellent kitchen surfaces. The right one depends on the look you want and how you use your kitchen.
| Feature | Quartz | Granite |
|---|---|---|
| Durability | Engineered from crushed quartz and resin. Very hard and non-porous, with good resistance to chips, scratches and stains. | Solid natural stone. Very hard and scratch-resistant. Edges can chip if struck hard. |
| Maintenance | No sealing needed. Wipe down with mild soap and water. | Naturally porous, so periodic sealing is recommended to resist stains. Clean with mild soap and water. |
| Heat resistance | Good, but the resin can scorch or discolour under direct high heat. Always use a trivet for hot pots. | Excellent. Handles high heat well, though trivets are still recommended to protect the sealer. |
| Look | Consistent colour and pattern from slab to slab, including realistic marble-look veining. | One-of-a-kind natural patterns, flecks and movement. No two slabs are the same. |
| Good fit for | Busy family kitchens, bright whites, and anyone who wants a low-maintenance surface. | People who love natural stone character, and kitchens that see a lot of heat near the cooktop. |
