Antique White Granite Panels by StonePly
Antique White Granite is characterized by a crisp white background composed of tightly interlocking crystalline minerals. Fine gray and charcoal flecks are distributed evenly across the surface, producing a delicate speckled texture that remains consistent throughout the slab. The grain structure is compact and uniform, resulting in a bright field of white with subtle tonal movement created by the mineral distribution.
For exterior architecture, the stone can be specified for façade cladding, entry volumes, and architectural wall planes, while interior installations may include lobby feature walls, elevator core surrounds, and atrium cladding where a refined white granite supports cohesive architectural palettes.
For exterior architecture, the stone can be specified for façade cladding, entry volumes, and prominent architectural wall planes where a bright white granite introduces clarity and contrast within the building envelope, while interior applications may include lobby feature walls, elevator core surrounds, and atrium cladding where the material contributes a refined natural surface to contemporary architectural spaces.

Other than diamonds, rubies, and sapphires, granite is the hardest natural stone. Granite is the preferred stone for exterior cladding as it is known for its strength and resistance to the elements. Unlike marble, granite is a very low maintenance choice for your building exterior; it is extremely resistant to heat, scratching, and stains.
Quarried all over the world, granite comes in a wide variety of colors. Typically you find granite finished with a high polish to show off the beautiful array of colors and natural grain. Granite's appearance is phenomenal for exterior applications or interior accents but can sometimes look too "busy" in confined spaces. To meet the need of current trends, granite can be honed, sandblasted, or have other textures applied to soften its natural tones and provide a very aesthetically pleasing panel.
Granite is not only found in commercial cladding applications but is a favorite for counter tops and flooring as well. The stone is extremely durable and easily maintained and cleaned. Being harder than marble and limestone, granite surpasses other stones in its ability to resist staining and acidic materials.
If your requirements call for a stone that has permanence, enduring texture and color, along with complete freedom from deterioration and maintenance, then granite is an ideal candidate for your project.
