Egyptian granite

Aswan granite built the obelisks. The same beds — red, pink, grey, black and green — are still quarried, and they remain the hardest-wearing material we ship.

Egyptian granite is an igneous stone of interlocking feldspar, quartz and mica crystals. It is hard, dense, frost-proof and effectively unaffected by acid, which makes it the default choice for external paving, kerbs, facades and kitchen worktops. Colour runs from the deep oxblood of Aswan Red through pinks and browns to grey, near-white and a single green.
