Indian blue-gray granite

Indian blue-gray granite (gneiss) is a very interesting granite and is mined in India.

Blue-grey granite is characterized by its beautiful wave-shaped pattern. The gray color shifts slightly into blue, hence the name. The shifting pattern, which is best seen on a polished surface, makes each stone unique.

On the Indian blue-grey granite, all text colors except black work well. It is also possible to have raised text.

The advantage of Indian blue-gray granite is that you get a tombstone with a completely unique pattern.

The disadvantage of Indian blue-gray granite is that you cannot choose the pattern of your tombstone.
It is difficult to order accessories for the tombstone afterwards if you want the same pattern and color shade as the life stone.

Indian blue-grey granite has a distinctive deep blue color with variations in shade and tone. It can range from a dark blue to a grayer shade depending on the mineral content and the specific mine where it is extracted.

Indian blue-grey granite is an igneous rock composed mainly of minerals such as quartz, feldspar and mica. Its unique blue color is due to the presence of minerals such as labradorite and hornblende.

Granite is known for its high hardness and durability, and Indian blue granite is no exception. It is resistant to abrasion and weathering, making it an excellent choice for gravestones. Its natural patterns and variations in color and tone make each tombstone a unique and personal tribute to the deceased.

Indian blue-grey granite can be worked and polished to a shiny smooth finish that highlights its blue color and natural patterns. It can also be left with a more rough and textured surface to create different aesthetic effects.
