CHEYENNE GRANITE
Cheyenne Granite worktops are made from a flawless slab of stone that was chiselled by mother nature. The background is brilliant black with white swirls tracing out strange geometries. The Cheyenne kitchen worktops are one of the best in our Kitchen surface stones. This Brazilian granite intrigues us with its deep black colour, which is enlivened by its uneven and imperfect veining, which occasionally takes the form of fantastical coils and on other occasions exhibits fictitious geometries in white and grey. This extraordinary marvel captures our attention with its exquisite simplicity and reveals its grandeur in uncrowded, light, simple settings. With a polished finish, the countertop takes on an almost sculptural quality due to its mirror-like gloss. However, its vintage finish keeps the stone's natural colour, its original aesthetic features, and its smooth surface. Nevertheless, the stone's natural colour, its original aesthetic features, and its smooth touch—in other words, the beauty of the stone at its core—remain intact due to the vintage finish.
We offer both 20mm and 30mm granite, in polished, honed, vintage and other finishes.
Uses: Indoor & Outdoor surfaces like kitchen worktops, splashbacks, walls, floors, fireplaces, bathroom vanity, shower areas, patios, etc.
Composition of Granite
Granite is a coarse-grained, light-coloured igneous rock composed of feldspars and quartz with minor quantities of mica and amphibole minerals. Taking a closer look at the mineral composition is focused on understanding the pattern and colour of the slabs. Feldspar is abundantly found in granite, they constitute pink, grey, or reddish pigments. Quartz is a colourless, transparent mineral. Mica has muscovite and biotite of the mica mineral family sheds a reflective vitreous luster. Amphibole mineral-like hornblende is dark in colour and has a prismatic appearance. Special names are given according to their grain sizes. The large-grained crystals are called pegmatite, and the fine-grained from crystallizing is termed Aplite.
Maintenance for your Granite worktop
Avoid using string and harmful chemicals, acid-based cleaners, or corrosive scrubs. Using Mild Soap liquid or pH neutral cleaning liquid and a microfiber cloth can get your kitchen or any granite surface to keep looking attractive, & last longer.
The sealant added to the granite gives the more reliable performance of keeping the spillage during cooking from being absorbed into the grains. An immediate wiping is recommended to prolong the life of the granite worktop. Discoloration and marks are a threat to the granite if the chopping board is not in place. Carelessness can make the sturdy stone chipping or stain resistant which could deteriorate a beautiful centerpiece of a Kitchen.
