The Work
Granite with the shine taken off — a soft, textured matte finish that hides prints and water spots and feels like stone should.
All granite →"Leathered" isn't a stone — it's a finish, and it's the reason a lot of people who thought they were done with granite come back to it. Instead of a high polish, the slab is brushed to a soft, low-sheen texture that follows the natural grain. It looks contemporary, feels wonderful under your hand, and it forgives daily life in a way a polished top can't.
Leathered is a finish, not a stone. The surface is brushed to a soft, lightly textured matte that you can feel under your hand. It hides fingerprints, water spots and small scratches far better than a polish, which is why it is a favorite on dark granites.
Granite itself is one of the most durable stones we fabricate. It takes heat, resists scratching, and is not etched by kitchen acids. It is sealed at install and usually needs resealing only every few years.
It is also a favorite in outdoor kitchens, where granite handles heat, weather and sun, and the matte texture keeps water spots from showing.
No. Wipe it with mild soap and water. The texture hides marks rather than collecting them.
Yes, like any granite. It is sealed at install and usually needs resealing every few years.
Darker granites, such as black and deep grey stones, where a polish would show every fingerprint.
