Granite worktops have been ruling kitchens and bathrooms from the beginning of history until engineered stones like quartz were introduced. Does that mean granite is out of fashion now? Quite the opposite. At Ultra Stones, we believe in creating our own trends in designing spaces. If your knowledge of granite has been limited to Absolute Black and Silver Cloud, it is time to explore the top exotic granite colors that will help you create your design niche.
Why Choose Exotic Granite Surfaces for Your Space?
Exotic granite colors at Ultra Stones are valued for their premium quality and rarity. Thanks to their durability and resistance to environmental impacts, they are ideal for both statement-making designs and high-traffic areas. Therefore, designing kitchens, living spaces, and bathrooms with these high-end granite stones will elevate the visual appeal of your residential and commercial space and increase its resale value.
Granite is an igneous rock. It is harder and more durable than marble. Thanks to its dense structure, it can withstand external impacts including scratching, staining, etching, and more. This makes granite a perfect material for use in high-traffic areas. In this blog, we will explore the top high-end premium and exclusive granite colors.
Lemurian Blue
Quarried in Madagascar, Lemurian Blue granite is a sight for sore eyes. A perfect slab of this super exotic granite showcases gorgeous teal or blue-green crystals set in a deep black canvas. The greenish striations in the crystals lend a smoky effect to the stone, making it look even more enchanting.
Furthermore, iridescent labradorite inclusions allow light to dance across the slab, enhancing its appearance. Its unique colors, patterns, and reflective features make it an ideal choice for designing show-stopping accent walls, vanities, countertops, bathtubs, and more. As seen in the picture, the Lemurian Blue granite bathtub steals the show when set against a minimalist white background.
Labradorite White
Labradorite White granite is another stunning beauty from Madagascar. As the name suggests, this natural surface exudes luxury and sophistication with its white-grey palette. At one glance, the slab appears to be a painting of snow-capped mountains from a top angle. The black and grey inclusions add depth and dimension to the all-white background, while flashes of iridescent blue add a hint of shimmer and intrigue.
This white and grey granite is a perfect surface for designing bright and airy spaces. In the image above, the Labradorite White takes center stage as the featured reception desk. The fluted design of the stone blends seamlessly with the curves of the ceiling.
Copacabana
Quarried in Brazil, Copacabana is an exquisite black and white granite known for its bold veining and contrasting palette. The slab boasts a deep black background layered with white and beige wave-like patterns, resembling an abstract painting.
This granite is best suited for large-scale installations such as wall cladding, floors, and ceilings, allowing its dramatic veining to be fully appreciated. As you can see in the image above, the granite is featured in the backsplash, chimney hood, and countertop. Its striking veins add visual movement to the wood-toned cabinets. Incorporate contemporary and sleek accessories to highlight the stone’s intricate details.
Avatar
This premium granite is as good as a painting. Avatar is coveted for its dynamic visual appeal, as the stone features an intricate tapestry of earthy tones, including warm browns, ambers, forest greens, and cream hues interspersed with dark patterns. The raw energy and vibrant palette of this natural stone make it a focal point when used in kitchen islands, accent walls, or bathrooms. Granite bathroom vanity tops are durable and last for generations.
