The easy and best way to gain knowledge about the granite colours is by scouring the websites. This will give a fair idea about the different colours that are available in granite along with which colours go well with which colours.

  1. Carrying samples to the granite workshop or factories

Always make it a point to carry samples of cabinets in the office or kitchen designs or colour schemes of the bathroom to the granite workshops or factories when you go on a shopping spree to select the ideal granite work top for your worktops. This would enable you to choose the perfect granite top by making comparisons based on the different shades and colour options that are available. Even the sample of the flooring and wall paint if carried would be of great help. Care to choose a granite work top that is in total contrast to the colour of the cabinets is of paramount importance.

Also though you can choose from varied styles and colour options in the granite, there are high chances of the real shades of granite worktop differing from the real one due to differences in the subtle veining patterns and other tiny details that are better captured by the human eye than the camera. Nothing can beat watching skilled craftsmen at work to shape granite in the workshop and we at SK Marbles would be more than happy to entertain you at our factory.

Apart from the above guidelines, consideration of lighting, trends and styles against timeless and classic beauty, personalised service of consultation and choosing the right colour scheme are some of the factors that also needs consideration when choosing the right granite worktop for your home, office or bathroom as you would be doing it only once and not often.
