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. 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 a few drops of water left for 15 minutes show when it needs resealing.
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 a few drops of water left for 15 minutes show when it needs resealing.
Darker granites, such as black and deep grey stones, where a polish would show every fingerprint.
