Dark Red Aswan granite characteristics
Dark Red Aswan is quarried near Aswan in southern Egypt, the same historic region that supplied granite for ancient monuments. It is an igneous stone rich in quartz and feldspar, giving a dense, hard-wearing surface that resists scratches, heat, and weathering. Its warm red tone with dark speckles makes a bold statement in both classic and contemporary settings.
Product Information
Properties of Dark Red Aswan granite
As a natural igneous granite, Dark Red Aswan is coarse to medium grained and extremely hard, rating around 6–7 on the Mohs scale. This density gives it excellent resistance to scratches, heat, and frost, plus low water absorption when sealed, so it performs reliably indoors and outdoors. These properties make it a practical choice for high-traffic and demanding applications, from kitchen worktops to exterior paving and façades.
