Egyptian granite is hard, low-porosity igneous stone that works indoors and out. The range covers reds (Red Aswan, Royal Red, Red Fersan), Black Aswan, greys (Halayeb, New Halayeb, Karnak Grey), pinks (Rose El Nasr, Rosa Hoody, Gandolla), green and yellow Verdi and Brown Qusair. YK Marble and Granite has exported them from Giza since 2009 as slabs and cut-to-size stone for floors, stairs, facades, countertops and monuments.
Egypt has quarried granite for thousands of years: the red granite of Aswan was used for obelisks, columns and monuments in ancient times, and Aswan remains the source of Egypt's best-known reds and blacks. Today Egyptian granite ranges from the white and grey Halayeb stones to pinks such as Rose El Nasr and Rosa Hoody, the green and yellow Verdi stones and the brown Brown Qusair.
Unlike most Egyptian marbles, these are true igneous stones: hard, low in porosity and suited to both interiors and exteriors. Polished granite is used for floors, stairs, countertops and reception desks, while flamed and bush-hammered faces give grip for facades, steps and external paving. Colour and grain vary between blocks, so large projects are best ordered in one batch against an approved sample.
