Aurora is a Finnish granite quarried in the northern regions of Finland and marketed internationally under the trade name Aurora, also known as Scanflame. The stone displays a consistent medium‑grey colour with a fine to medium grain that gives it a subtle, speckled appearance without prominent veining. Its robust nature makes Aurora suitable for both interior and exterior applications, including flooring, wall cladding, countertops, and landscape elements. Recommended finishes are polished for a high‑shine surface or honed for a matte look that highlights its natural texture. Marmi di Carrara supplies Aurora in blocks and 2‑3 cm thick slabs, cut‑to‑size on request, with photographic documentation of actual slabs before purchase.
