Colour:

Gold Veined Brown Blue

An exotic Brazilian granite, Araras Gold weaves warm golds, tawny browns, cool grey-blues, and creamy whites into a rich, tapestry-like pattern.

Araras Gold granite is an extraordinary Brazilian stone, an exotic tapestry woven from a rich spectrum of natural hues. Its surface reveals a complex interplay of warm golds and inviting tawny browns, beautifully counterpointed by surprising veins and swathes of cool grey-blues and soft, creamy whites. This dense, granular granite exudes tremendous depth, creating a luxurious, multi-toned appearance with every unique slab. We love how its earth-inspired palette brings a distinctive warmth and character to any kitchen, making it a truly stunning choice for worktops and splashbacks.

Quarried deep within the heart of Brazil, Araras Gold is a testament to the Earth’s patient artistry. As an intrusive igneous rock, this granite formed over millions of years as silica-rich magma cooled slowly beneath the Earth's crust, allowing large, interlocking crystals of quartz, feldspar, and mica to develop. This geological process gives Araras Gold its characteristic hardness and dense structure, making it incredibly resilient and durable for the busiest of homes.

Choosing Araras Gold for your home means embracing both exceptional beauty and unwavering performance. Its natural density and high quartz content ensure it’s remarkably resistant to scratches, heat, and everyday wear, making it an ideal choice for kitchen worktops, island units, and splashbacks. While inherently tough, we always recommend sealing granite to maintain its low porosity and protect its intricate surface for years to come. At In2Stone, we’re passionate about bringing such unique, high-quality stones to life in your space, from hand-templating to precise installation, ensuring every detail reflects our commitment to craftsmanship and lasting value.

Which kitchen styles complement Araras Gold granite best?

How durable is Araras Gold granite and what care does it require?
As a granite, Araras Gold is exceptionally durable, boasting a Mohs hardness of 6-7, making it highly resistant to scratches, heat, and daily wear.

Where is Araras Gold granite quarried, and how was it formed?
Araras Gold granite is quarried deep within Brazil. It's an intrusive igneous rock, meaning it formed over millions of years as silica-rich magma slowly cooled and solidified deep within the Earth's crust. This slow cooling allowed large, interlocking crystals of quartz, feldspar, and mica to form, contributing to its unique pattern and incredible strength.
How does Araras Gold compare to other exotic granites?
Araras Gold stands out among exotic granites due to its unusually complex and multi-toned palette, uniquely combining warm golds and browns with distinct cool grey-blues and creamy whites. This intricate blend offers a level of visual interest and versatility not often found, making it a premium choice that offers exceptional design flexibility and enduring value.
★★★★★
"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."
