The stone
About Sahara Brown.
Sahara Brown is the only brown granite Egypt produces in quantity, which is the whole reason it travels: elsewhere a brown of this tone means an Indian or Brazilian block and a much longer freight leg. The ground is a warm coffee brown carrying black and amber crystal. It is dense, takes a hard polish, and is most often specified for worktops and dark external cladding.
