History and origin
It is an imported granite available on the international market within the Juparana group, veined materials of metamorphic origin. The name describes the golden dominant of the background. As with other trade names, the origin should be checked on the available batch. Marmi di Carrara supplies it on request.
Look and veining
The golden yellow background shows lighter and darker wavy veins, with grey and black crystals. The colour can shift towards ochre or straw yellow from slab to slab. Polishing intensifies the golden tones; matt finishes make them softer and more natural.

FAQ
Is Juparana Gold always the same tone?

Is it resistant enough for a worktop?
Yes, it resists scratches, heat and food acids well, with the usual stain protection.
Why are some slabs resin-treated?
