A bold, fiery granite from the heart of South Africa — where deep burgundy-red crystals blaze against a dark mineral backdrop.
African Red granite is a statement stone of uncompromising character, quarried from the rich geological formations of South Africa. Its surface blazes with intense burgundy-red and coral tones, punctuated by dark charcoal-black and grey mineral specks that add depth and complexity to every slab. This is not a stone for the timid — it commands attention and transforms any kitchen into a space of bold, confident style. The vibrant red colouring comes from the high concentration of potassium feldspar within the granite's crystalline structure, combined with iron-rich minerals that have developed their fiery hues over billions of years of geological formation. Each slab carries the authentic character of the African landscape — warm, dramatic, and endlessly fascinating to look at. In2stone's craftsmen bring out the very best in African Red through meticulous fabrication and installation. With a Mohs hardness of 6-7 and excellent heat resistance, this granite is as hardwearing as it is visually striking. Whether used as a full kitchen worktop, a dramatic island surface, or a bold splashback, African Red delivers a one-of-a-kind kitchen that guests will remember long after they've left.

"We decided to get bespoke granite work tops for our new kitchen and have to say that we are over the moon with them. From the outset, Ian was very professional when selecting the stone, he listened to what we wanted, went through all of the possibilities that we could have for our worktops and went through the process in detail once we had made a decision. The templateing and fitting was carried out by an incredibly professional and helpful team run by Kev, who knew exactly what they were doing and just got on and made my kitchen look amazing. I would highly recommend In2stone for a helpful, knowledgeable and professional service from start to finish."— Nicky HavardGoogle Review
