Labrador Antique Granite

Brown Granite

Labrador Antique Granite is an expensive coarse grained natural stone quarried since 1996. This stone has a high resistance to both staining and scratching.

The coloring is unique. A deep & dark brown background showcases large crystals and highlights of reflective blue to purple crystals. The brown background tones change from stone to stone and so does the size of the crystals.

It's classified into two qualities before it leaves the quarry:

GLA 1st Choice has a brown background with clear blue to purple crystals. There might be red, brown, black, white,or green lines and some small black spots in the structure.
GLA 2nd Choice is similar to the above in color and crystals but usually contains larger veins and more black spots. It could also be more open in structure than first choice.

Interesting Fact: Norway has one of longest and most rugged coastlines in the world.
