Forsan Dark Granite Overview

Forsan Dark Granite from Grand Granite

Forsan Dark Granite, also known as Dark Wadi Forsan Granite, is a premium natural stone quarried from Egypt’s Aswan region and supplied by Grand Granite. This striking granite is characterized by its deep red to dark red hues, often interspersed with subtle black and white flecks, creating a luxurious and sophisticated appearance. Its fine to medium-grained texture and unique veining patterns, caused by minerals like quartz, feldspar, and biotite, make it a standout choice for both traditional and contemporary designs.

Renowned for its exceptional durability, Forsan Dark Granite boasts a compressive strength of approximately 20,300 psi, a low water absorption rate of 0.13%, and high resistance to scratches, stains, heat, and weathering. These properties make it ideal for a variety of applications, including kitchen countertops, bathroom vanities, flooring, wall cladding, outdoor paving, and garden pathways. The stone is available in multiple finishes—polished, honed, flamed, bush-hammered, or sandblasted—to suit diverse aesthetic and functional needs.

Grand Granite offers Forsan Dark Granite in blocks, slabs (18-100 mm thick), tiles (up to 200 mm thick by order), and custom-cut sizes, ensuring versatility for residential and commercial projects. The stone’s vibrant red color and durability, rooted in Egypt’s ancient quarries used since the Old Kingdom (2686-2181 BCE), add a timeless elegance to any space. For pricing and availability, Grand Granite recommends direct consultation, as costs vary based on size, finish, and market conditions. Their commitment to quality and sustainable sourcing ensures a premium product that meets international standards.
