Granite 101
What stone can look incredibly sophisticated or super simple and is one of the most durable stones for home use? Exactly, Granite. Because granite starts as molten rock, we classify it as igneous rock, in comparison to metamorphic (Quartzite) or sedimentary rocks (Onyx or Dolomite). Igneous means that it is cooled down magma, and depending on the size of the magma chamber, it can take thousands or millions of years for it to form.
