Kashmir Gold Granite
Description
Kashmir Gold granite is a luxurious natural stone featuring rich amber and gold tones with brown and black crystal patterns. Quarried in Tamil Nadu, South India — despite its name — it brings opulence and warmth to any interior.
The warm, golden tones of Kashmir Gold granite create an atmosphere of luxury and refinement. It is particularly effective in traditional and classic interior styles, where its rich colouration complements ornate details and warm wood tones.
Kashmir Gold granite is one of FB Marble's most popular export stones — its combination of warm colour, natural beauty and durability make it an excellent choice for homeowners and contractors alike.

Practical note: Kashmir Gold is lighter and more porous than dark granites — seal it before use and every 6–12 months, particularly near cooking oil. Clean with warm water and a pH-neutral soap; avoid bleach and abrasive powders that strip the sealer.
