Giallo Ornamental granite has dark gray and brown veins on a creamy white background. It is quarried in Brazil that has a more uniform look than other granite types when viewed from a distance. The background varies in color from pure white to light gray and makes up between 30 and 50 percent of the surface. The veins create a mottled or flecked golden appearance with veining that ranges from light cream to dark honey. There are also areas of the veining that are so dark they may appear to be black.

Designer Thoughts

Your kitchen will be stunning with white, retro cabinets and countertops created from giallo ornamental granite. Add a darker brown backsplash for more contrast. The granite also works well with dark wood cabinets and wooden floors, creating a more modern appearance. Looking for something even more unique? Consider installing giallo ornamental flooring in your kitchen or bath. You can also choose a backsplash created from giallo ornamental as a way to make your bath look more modern and inviting.

Keep in Mind

Giallo ornamental granite is durable and easy to maintain. It does not scratch or stain easily and the mottled appearance help hide dirt. Only clean granite countertops with mild soap and hot water as abrasive cleaners can damage the surface. Always wipe spills of acidic liquids, like coffee, wine or fruit juices, quickly to avoid staining. Although hot pans will not damage the granite countertops, grit on the bottom of the pan can cause scratches, so be sure to use trivets or hot pads. Sweep granite floors often and place floor mats at entrances where dirt could be tracked in.
