Granite Countertop Facts

Granite is a completely natural stone. Granite is made from a combination of materials. It’s made of feldspar, mica, and quarts. Granite itself isn’t really a solid piece. It had really tiny spaces between the material and because of this, it is porous. One thing to remember when cutting food on top of your granite countertops without a cutting board is that the granite is stronger than your knife. So if you want to keep your knives in perfect shape, we suggest you use a cutting board. Did you know that granite has been around our kitchens and homes for a really long time? Hundreds of years in fact.
