Branco DO Vimieiro is a light-grey granite quarried in Portugal, also traded as Branco Rei, Branco VM and White Silver - Ref. 30. This medium-grained two-mica granite shows a slight porphyroid tendency, with dispersed greyish quartz aggregates giving the surface a subtle silvery movement rather than pronounced veining. Its even, neutral tone makes Branco DO Vimieiro a versatile granite for flooring, wall cladding, kitchen worktops, stairs and exterior paving. It performs well in polished, honed, flamed or bush-hammered finishes, indoors and out. Marmi di Carrara supplies Branco DO Vimieiro as blocks, slabs 2/3 cm and cut-to-size pieces, with photos of the actual slabs sent before purchase.
