Betchouan - Granite
Description
If you are aware of the world’s finest granites, you surely know Saudi Arabia’s Violetta to be a high-quality benchmark. Betchouan pays tribute to Violetta granite with its somewhat magnificently unique, made-in-Quebec feature: its large purplish-brown crystals on a black background, enhanced by a few white flashes that capture the light, as in a tale from Arabian Nights.
