(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 18, 2013 ) New Palestine IN -- The United States leads the industry in the extraction and processing of granite with several quarries nationwide. As the demand for granite countertops and other natural stone surfaces grows, more suppliers will be sought. With more counties producing granite, the color variations also increase in the U.S. market. This makes for a wide choice in colors for the countertops’ market and the chance to match any décor as seen in the Surface Encounters granite countertops showroom.
Consumers who visit the granite countertops showroom discover the awesome color variations formed by nature to make each new piece unique. In addition, the automated machinery used by Surface Encounters is nothing short of amazing.
Granite is a dimensional stone which is formed over eons from minerals solidifying together and condensing under great forces of pressure from the plate tectonics in the earthÂ’s crust. When cut into slabs and polished for granite countertops one can see the layers of formation in the stone.
The unique color patterns found in granite are created by the flow of the minerals through the body of this natural stone. This is called “movement” and granite countertops are often full of “movement”. This “movement” of minerals in one’s granite countertop can make the countertop appear darker or lighter.
Granite will vary in its color pattern and is almost like a fingerprint, no two are exactly alike. The longer the slab the more distinct and unique the piece becomes, so each granite countertop created by Surface Encounters (http://www.halfoffgranite.com/) is a unique piece of natureÂ’s art.
Depending on the décor of one’s home or office, one may choose a color pattern native to a specific part of the world. Asian décors normally are accented with a red or pink granite countertop. These countertops are created from what is known as Rose granite which is native to Brazil or China.
A popular color chosen by contractors today is a blue granite countertop. Blue granite is native to the Ukraine, South Africa, and Norway. Regardless of the décor, Surface Encounters has 1000’s of color choices to choose from either in international or domestic granite.
The most widely used colors of granite used for granite countertops are yellow, beige, brown and black. In black granite, the quartz characteristics found in the natural stone give a textured appearance providing both an elegant and deep finish to a granite countertop. The black granite used in countertops is native to Sweden, Australia, South Africa and India.
Granite countertops with all of its color vanities offer one a chance at the most durable, life time-lasting beauty for any home. Unlike laminates which fade or discolor, granite countertops can be polished and returned to a rich, deep and full luster that only polished granite can provide.
