Ubatuba Green Granite Slab:
Ubatuba Green Granite from Brazil is a finely textured granite with speckles of black, gold, grey, and green. Ubatuba granite's shimmering speckles make it an ideal statement piece for indoor and outdoor applications such as granite countertops, backsplashes, and more. Ubatuba, with its versatile colour palette and low price, can be found in many homes' kitchens and bathrooms, as counters and tiles.
It looks great in any of the available finishes, but the smoother ones, like polished and honed, are best for countertops, while the bush-hammered, shot-blasted, and aged finishes look great on interior and exterior walls and floors
Origins of Ubatuba Green Granite:
Ubatuba Green granite is mined in the area surrounding Ubatuba, Brazil. The area is known primarily for its beautiful coastline and beaches, which attract tourists from all over the world. It is located roughly halfway between Rio de Janeiro and So Paulo.
In the context of the construction industry, Ubatuba is synonymous with stone production. The quarries that produce Ubatuba Green Granite are massive, shipping massive blocks of stone all over the world for tile and countertop use. Ubatuba, like other granites, is an igneous rock composed primarily of quartz and mica with some charnockite.

Finishes of Ubatuba Green Granite:
Because Ubatuba Green granite is one of the most durable natural stones, its surface allows for an infinite number of finishes.
Polished
This is the most distinctive finish, producing an unrivalled effect that reflects light and objects like a mirror.
Honed
When laid, this finish gives the stone more character and prominence. It reflects light, but with a lower level of reflection. The surface is smooth.
Aged
A special treatment gives it a texture that highlights the natural properties of the stone as well as the aesthetic force of its seams. The surface is a little uneven.
Bush Hammered
The resulting product has a rough effect and a rugged touch, which is ideal for making this product more durable in exteriors.
Shot-Blasted
A surface treatment that makes the surface of this stone rougher and more soft rock. Exteriors are highly recommended.
Flamed
This finish emphasises the natural seams of the stone by texturing the surface.
Satin
This surface is velvety in appearance and feels smooth to the touch.
Which Cabinet Colours Complement Ubatuba Granite Stone?
-
Ubatuba Green Granite is a versatile granite that can complement a wide range of kitchen cabinet colours and styles.
-
In most cases, when combined with white kitchen cabinets, the overall effect is modern, clean, and minimalist.
-
When combined correctly, the deep dark black of the Uba Tuba granite countertops stands out against the white cabinets and can be quite dramatic.
-
However, the sharp lines of many bright white cabinets can be quite intense - and maybe a little too much for some people.
-
To make the white and black of the countertops blend more easily, try offsetting them with a little aluminium or brushed steel.
-
The mood of the room changes dramatically when Uba Tuba granite countertops are combined with dark brown cabinets.
-
Instead of standing out against the white, they blend in almost seamlessly. This gives a kitchen a much more flowing and refined appearance.
-
Perfect for those who prefer subtlety in their beauty rather than stark contrast with white cabinets.
-
When combined with natural wood-stained cabinets, the kitchen takes on an entirely new feel. When compared to the natural appearance of the stained wood, the Ubatuba has a much more polished tone.
-
This combination will make your kitchen feel very cosy, almost like a log cabin. It's a truly lovely pairing.
