Irrespective of the size of your kitchen, big or small, they go perfectly with everything. It is made from an incredibly durable and beautiful natural stone. Because of their strength and colour options, Granite countertops can add a touch of elegance and style to your kitchen. They are heat-resistant, so no worry if you place hot utensils over them and when sealed properly, they become stain-resistant, plus easy to clean and maintain.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Grades &amp; Types of Granite<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17029\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/850x450-Pix_3-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"851\" height=\"451\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/850x450-Pix_3-6.jpg 851w, https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/850x450-Pix_3-6-300x159.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/850x450-Pix_3-6-768x407.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/850x450-Pix_3-6-150x79.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 851px) 100vw, 851px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>Grades:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can find granite countertops in three grades divided by the quality of the stone. The basic quality is affordable, and going forward, you can have the best product at a higher price. Let&#8217;s see the difference:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grade 1\/Commercial Grade: It is basic and affordable. This is the best option if you prefer granite but have price concerns. Also, grade 1 granite has some imperfections in the texture or finish.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grade 2\/Standard Grade: This mid-range quality offers you a balance between price and quality. It has fewer imperfections and is often thicker and more durable than grade 1.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grade 3\/Premium Grade: If budget is not an issue for you, then go for the highest quality granite. It comes with fewer or no imperfections, in multiple colour options, and with better thickness.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>A Few Granite Types and Selection Secrets<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ever wondered how you select the best-quality countertop? Well, when choosing the right one for your kitchen countertop, look for the same colour, which can make a uniform look. To test the quality, you can do a small test by pouring a small amount of water on the surface. Good-quality granite will not absorb water quickly, indicating it is properly sealed and durable. However, the low-quality granite will create some issues. Let&#8217;s <\/span><b>understand a few of the types of granite and select the best one according to your kitchen type and budget.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Absolute Black<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It comes in a dark, deep black colour with a sleek design and absolutely no texture or pattern on it. If you are aiming for a modern look in your kitchen, go for it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ubatuba:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> As beautiful as its name, this greenish-black granite has gold spots on it. It gives a luxurious vibe to your kitchen space.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Kashmir White: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This type of granite has an off-white colour with elegant grey and brown veins endlessly running through it. You can pair it with a neutral and spacious kitchen for a light and airy feel.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Baltic Brown: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the name suggests, it has a dark brown colour with lighter brown flecks. You can go for it to create a warm and rich appearance in your kitchen.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Pairing Sense<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several things to consider when pairing your granite countertops in your kitchen. To add drama to your space, create a bold contrast by using light-coloured granite with dark cabinets or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/tiles\/wall-tiles\">wall tile<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if you prefer a subtle and more unified look, opt for coordinating the colours of your granite with your cabinets to create a cohesive feel. Like white granite with white or beige cabinets. To add visual interest and depth, you can even mix different types of granite.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, don&#8217;t forget about lighting! If your kitchen gets very little natural light, consider using shades such as white, off-white, and beige for countertops to brighten the space. On the other hand, if your kitchen has plenty of natural light, you can choose darker-coloured countertops for a good look.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Granalt: New Age Alternative to Granite<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/\">Orientbell Tile<\/a> has come up with a strong and stylish alternative to natural granite. Known as Granalt, it is much easier to install and customise. As you might know, Granite is a heavy natural stone. So, moving and lifting large slabs of it requires strength and proper equipment to ensure safety during installation. But this is not the case with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/tiles\/granite-tiles?tile_area=104\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; ;color: #218f21;\">Granalt<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Here, you have to put less effort into installing it as it is lightweight.

Orientbell Tiles gives you several options with colours.

On the other hand, Black granite countertops exude timeless elegance and luxury.

You can find them somewhere between Rs 300-700 per square foot. Kindly note that higher quality with fewer imperfections comes at a higher price. Rare colours or patterns as well as the higher grade granite are more expensive due to limited availability. Furthermore, it includes cutting, shaping, and sealing plus long-term maintenance costs and occasional repairs. To save money on <\/span><b>granite countertops<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you must compare prices from different suppliers. Getting quotes from several places helps you find the best deal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Or go with the alternatives. Materials like <\/span><b>granite tiles <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">can look similar to granite but might cost less. Also, choosing common colours and finishes can be cheaper than more unique choices. For example, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/tiles\/counter-top\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; ;color: #218f21;\">Granalt <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">countertop is an affordable option and ranges between; Rs 202-231 per square foot with Orientbell Tiles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Conclusion\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Opting for <\/span><b>granite countertops<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as <\/span><b>kitchen granite slab<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> offers a plethora of benefits to you from style to durability. However, the cost and weight are an issue for many new homeowners. So, options like granalt from Orientbell Tiles offer both aesthetic and functional appeal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From durability to timeless elegance, granite stands out as a top choice for discerning homeowners and designers.
