Silvestre Vila Real

It is a material from our neighboring country. It is a highly demanded granite, especially locally, to be used as cladding of façades in a bush-hammered or flamed finish. Its color, between gold and orange, makes it blend in perfectly with the Galician natural landscape.

Finishes
Polished
Completely smooth and shiny finish achieved by abrading the surface of the material and applying waxes. This is the most requested finish for countertops, because of its ease of cleaning and disinfection. By closing the pores, greater resistance to external agents is obtained.
Bush-hammered
Surface treated with a pneumatic hammer and diamond bushes. The result is a sandy, uniform surface with a rustic appearance.
Applications
Interior and exterior claddings, rustic style furniture, etc.
