Porto Rosa knife block | Diamond Cut

Details

The Porto Rosa is in the fillet class among the granites.

The Brazilian mylonite creates a very special atmosphere with its unusual play of colors in black, white and pink nuances. In addition, the color pink is a rare color in granite. The Brazilian top granite has low water absorption, is very easy to care for and is particularly robust due to its high density. Porto Rosa is a migmatite with extremely fine, white, strongly folded quartz-plagioclase bands.
