About Himalaya Snow
We have Himalaya Snow slabs in our yard, so you can see and choose the actual stone. The pattern is large and flowing and every slab is different, so for large surfaces it is best to see the slabs and match the direction of the pattern.
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
The same stone looks different depending on the finish: polished, it is darker and glossy; flamed or flamed & brushed, it is lighter, rougher and less slippery. Outdoor floors and stairs usually get a flamed finish, while interior walls and countertops are usually polished.
