Juparana Colombo Granite: complete guide
Overview
Juparana Colombo is an Indian granite with a grey-beige background and darker wavy veins. It offers the lively pattern of the Juparana granites in a more neutral, versatile tone.
History and origin
It is quarried in India, a country that produces numerous veined granites sold under the name Juparana alongside the Brazilian ones. It has long been known on the European market for worktops and floors. The name is commercial and does not refer to a specific place. Marmi di Carrara supplies it on request.
Appearance
The grey-beige background is crossed by dark grey, white and sometimes pinkish waves, with small burgundy garnets. Variability between slabs is medium to high, with lighter and darker areas. Polishing accentuates the contrast of the waves; honing gives a more uniform, contemporary effect.
Uses
It is used for kitchen worktops, bathroom tops, floors and interior and exterior cladding. Its neutral tones also make it suitable for commercial spaces and offices.
Care and maintenance
Clean with neutral detergents and apply stain protection periodically. On polished surfaces avoid metal scouring pads.
