Description

Casa Blanca is quarried from a bedrock quarry in Brazil. This granite has a white background with gray veining and movement. Some blocks will show larger areas of white crystals in the slabs and other blocks will have a more overall gray look. There are small bits of mica in this granite that will shimmer in the light. During the polishing process, an epoxy resin is applied to the surface of the stone to fill in any natural pits, cracks or fissures that may exist. This does not affect the durability, maintenance or beauty of the stone. It is possible for some of the more minute pits that are too small to effectively hold the resin, to reopen during additional finishing stages. However, this will not detract from the overall quality or appearance of the stone. Due to the qualities of the stone, the slabs are book-matched; meaning slab one and slab two will be cut and polished to create a mirror image of each other. These are then kept in sequence, which allows for a consistent flow in pattern. As a natural stone product, it is recommended that it be sealed to extend its longevity.
