Impala D Satinato
The Stone
See the natural beauty of Impala D Satinato up close — the surface texture, colour depth, and veining that make this granite unique.
From the Rustenburg region of South Africa, this charcoal-grey granite presents a finely textured, uniformly busy surface sparkling with points of light in its polished finish.
Impala D Granite presents a sophisticated surface of deep, dark charcoal grey, imbued with subtle cool undertones that give it remarkable depth. We love how its character is defined not by bold veining, but by a dense, mottled granular pattern. You'll discover fine to medium-sized flecks in varying shades of dark charcoal, mid-grey, and even occasional hints of very dark blue-grey, creating a uniformly busy yet subtly sophisticated appearance. This stone truly comes alive with its polished finish, which highlights numerous tiny, sparkling particles scattered throughout, creating sporadic points of light reflection that dance across your worktop.
Quarried from the ancient and mineral-rich Rustenburg region of South Africa's Northwest Province, Impala D Granite tells a story of geological wonder. This material is an intrusive igneous rock, formed deep within the Earth's crust as silica-rich magma cooled incredibly slowly over millennia. This gradual cooling process allowed large, interlocking crystals of quartz, feldspar, and mica to form, giving granite its signature coarse-grained, crystalline texture. It's these very crystals, alongside accessory minerals, that contribute to its distinctive granular pattern and inherent strength.
Impala D Granite is an exceptional choice for kitchen worktops, bathroom vanities, and splashbacks, offering a blend of beauty and unparalleled durability. Its high quartz content (Mohs 6-7) makes it incredibly resistant to scratches, heat, and everyday wear, ensuring it stands up to the demands of a busy home. We approach every Impala D installation with the same passion and precision, from hand-templating to crafting seamless joins and perfect edges. While naturally dense and low-porosity, we always recommend sealing granite to maintain its good stain resistance and ensure it remains a cherished feature in your home for years to come. With In2Stone, you get honest pricing and the peace of mind that comes from true craftsmanship and dedicated care.

"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
