About Black Galaxy

When polished the flecks sparkle, so it is a favourite for kitchen countertops, counters and lobby floor accents that need a premium feel.

Where is it used?

Hard and resistant to water and frost, granite is used inside and out: facades, floors, stairs, landscape paving and kerbs, as well as kitchen and table tops.

Good to know when choosing

Polished black granite has a mirror-like shine, but on floors it shows dust and footprints. Flamed or water-jet finishes turn it greyer and less slippery, so floors, stairs and wet areas such as bathhouses often use flamed & brushed or water-jet finishes.

Where to buy Black Galaxy in Korea

You can see and choose the actual stone in the yard of GJ STONE TRADE at 196-4 Maejari-gil, Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi-do. We cut it to size and do edge profiles, holes and CNC work in our own factory, ship anywhere in Korea by freight, and can install it on site as a licensed stonework contractor.

Prices depend on thickness, finish, size and quantity, so we quote each order individually. Email us photos or drawings (DWG, DXF, PDF).
