Jet Black Granite

Jet Black is a solid, uniform black granite with almost no visible pattern. Mirror-polished it looks like black glass, which suits minimalist kitchens, modern floors and contrast borders with white marble.

What Jet Black looks like

A deep, even black with a very fine grain that you only notice up close. With no flecks or veins, every slab matches the next, so it is ideal for long counters, borders, inlays and large floors where you want a seamless look.

Where it works best

  • Minimalist kitchen countertops
  • Floor borders and inlay work with white marble
  • Staircases and skirting
  • Table tops and vanity tops

Care and maintenance

It is very hard and stain-resistant. Because it is plain black and highly polished, fingerprints, water spots and dust show more than on a speckled stone, so wipe it dry after cleaning. A leather finish hides marks and gives a softer, modern look.
