Granite is a highly durable siliceous stone, consisting mainly of quartz, mica, and feldspar. Compared to marble, it is more resistant to the acids found in lemons, vinegar, and some cleaning products which means most granite do not etch. Granite can withstand the heat of hot pots and pans without damage but not the sealant and finish.
These minerals and their variation in abundance and alteration give the numerous colors and textures.

Granite is a fantastic material for countertops, whether they’re in your bathroom, kitchen, or in a home bar area. It’s incredibly durable: you can set hot pans and pots on it, spill wine on it without staining, and (if it’s sealed properly) you can even skip the cutting board! Granite is much more than just durable. Its natural beauty and glossy shine are timeless. An investment in granite ensures that you won’t need to update your countertops again.
