Product description
Luxury Azul Bahia Blue Granite represents one of the most spectacular decorative natural granites originating from Brazil.

About
Country and Quarry Origin
This high‑grade granite is extracted from exclusive quarries in Bahia state, Brazil. The deposit features thick rock strata with stable color and pattern performance. Strict block‑selection procedure
Texture
The raw stone texture is compact, coarse‑grained crystalline granite texture. Dense interlocking mineral crystals can be observed on cross‑section. After high‑gloss polishing, surface becomes smooth mirror‑finish. Visible crystalline granular sensation remains under light viewing. Golden mineral sections show slight different tactile granular feel. No loose grain structure, solid and tight interior without visible hollow voids in premium‑grade slabs.
Pattern and Veining
Its pattern presents an obvious layered metamorphic structure. Upper area features concentrated deep navy‑blue background dotted with irregular large golden‑yellow mineral clumps. Lower section unfolds continuous undulating wavy folded veins mixed with grey‑blue, ash‑grey and faint rust‑colored fine streaks. Veins run horizontally and swirl organically across slab surface. Distribution of gold mineral clusters varies heavily piece by piece, creating dramatic visual contrast between dark base and bright golden inclusions.
Durability
Azul Bahia Blue Granite owns excellent durability for interior use. Dense mineral composition brings great scratch‑resistant and abrasion‑resistant performance. Properly sealed polished surface resists daily wear from furniture friction and foot traffic. Though robust, hard heavy‑object impact may result in chipping or cracking. For long‑term service life, avoid heavy impact. It is recommended for interior application; continuous outdoor exposure under freeze‑thaw environment may gradually affect surface gloss.
Acid Sensitivity
As a natural granite dominated by quartz and feldspar, this material holds fair acid‑resistance compared with calcareous marble. Long‑time contact with strong acid substances such as citrus juice, vinegar, chemical cleaners will still cause surface etching and dull polish. Spilled acidic liquid must be wiped off immediately. Do not use acid‑based detergents for routine cleaning. Sealing can offer extra protective support yet cannot completely resist heavy strong‑acid erosion.

Installation Guide
Install on flat, rigid stable substrate. Use recommended granite‑grade adhesive for slabs. Keep proper joint gap for tile installation. Avoid uneven stress to prevent cracking. For countertop, support must cover whole underside, reinforce overhang area. Protect polished surface during whole installation process to prevent scratch and stain. Complete sealing after installation is finished.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Clean surface with soft cloth and neutral pH stone cleaner. Wipe spills promptly, especially acidic liquid. Never apply acid‑based or abrasive scouring cleansers. Re‑apply high‑quality stone sealer every 12‑18 months. Avoid dragging sharp heavy items directly across polished surface to prevent scratches.
