Please note that these are average samples only. Due to granite being a natural material, rough block, slabs, tiles, and monuments are all liable to vary in colour and veining, therefore absolute resemblance cannot be guaranteed.

Labrador Antique Granite

Labrador Antique Granite ®

  • The original Labrador Antique® is a registered trade mark, expensive and with a very limited production of two varieties.
  • The geological name of Labrador Antique® is Anortositt and it was formed 920-1000 million years ago. Labrador Antique® blocks are offered to the market in two qualities.
  • GLA 1st choice : Brown ground colour with clear blue/purple crystals. The structure is not absolute conform as other labradors, but more multicolour. Could be red/brown/black/white/green lines and some small black spots in structure.
  • GLA 2nd choice : This quality may contain larger veins and more black spots. Could also be some more open in struture than 1st choice. The colour and crystals in both qualities are more or less similar to each other.
  • New quarries which have opened include a "New Labrador Antique" and also a "Blue Antique". When reviewing prices ensure you are comparing like with like since the price could vary considerably depending upon the depth of colour and the material selected.
