On hand at our Los Angeles yard: 16 slabs of Patagonia, a 2 cm grey with white, black, gold, and yellow granite from Brazil in a polished finish. Lot 429 measures about 130″ × 80″.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 130″ × 80″, about 72 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is grey with white, black, gold, and yellow. Natural stone still varies inside that description, so the slab itself is the reference for movement and shade. This material is recorded as quarried in Brazil.
The polished finish is reflective and lets the color read clearly. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.
In the yard
Lot 429 at our Los Angeles yard shows 16 slabs in stock, none on hold, and 16 slabs available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.
The slabs can be compared in daylight at our Los Angeles yard before anything is cut.
Where it works
For this kind of stone, the usual applications are kitchen countertops, vanities, and floors. The right use still depends on the finish, the thickness, and how the slab will be cared for after it is installed.
The material
Granite is an igneous rock quarried around the world. It is built mostly from quartz, feldspar, and mica, and it is one of the harder stones used on counters. It stands up to heat, scratches, and everyday moisture better than most marble. A uniform color stays close from slab to slab, while a veined granite should still be matched inside the lot before it is cut. A honed face looks matte, a polish looks reflective, and a leather or brushed face feels lightly textured. Ask the fabricator whether this finish should be sealed.
About Patagonia
Patagonia is an extraordinary natural stone from Brazil, often classified as a granite or more accurately a pegmatite due to its unique formation. It features a dramatic, high-contrast composition of creamy feldspar, smoky gray accents, and large, translucent sections of white quartz. This rare material is celebrated for its exceptional durability and its ability to be backlit, which allows the crystalline quartz zones to glow with a brilliant, ethereal light.
Interestingly, Patagonia is technically a volcanic fusion of minerals like quartz, feldspar, and mica that crystallized at different rates. Because it contains significant amounts of natural quartz, it is frequently marketed as a quartzite, offering a level of hardness and visual depth that makes every slab a singular work of geological art.
