Commercial granite certainly does command a range of prices, depending on a whole raft of factors. Broadly, you could say that it all comes down to &#8220;market forces&#8221;. Here are some of them, as they affect granite worktops:<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;36639&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-662e74b32da16\" data-id=\"662e74b32da16\" data-height=\"30\" data-height-mobile=\"30\" data-height-tab=\"30\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;33587&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Taj Mahal Granite &#8211; a stunning quartzite with a gentle green, gold and cream pattern<\/em><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<ul>\n<li><b>How sought-after is the colour?<\/b><br \/>\nA stone which is unattractive or represents an unfashionable colour is going to be less expensive.

This applies to many of the black stones \u2013 our own Black Pearl (India), Angola Black (Africa) and Ubatuba (Brazil) all do similar jobs. Although occasionally one customer will greatly prefer one over another, they all between them serve to keep the prices of \u201cmottled blacks\u201d down. Conversely the sparkle in Black Galaxy is unique to a small area in India, while Blue Pearl and Emerald Pearl are only found in Norway, so these stones remain at a premium price.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;33969&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Black Pearl Granite worktops &#8211; classy and affordable<\/em><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-662e74b32da6e\" data-id=\"662e74b32da6e\" data-height=\"30\" data-height-mobile=\"30\" data-height-tab=\"30\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;27314&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;img_link_large&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><b>Aran White Granite: Stunning, but with all the structural cohesion of an over-done fruitcake<\/b><\/em><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<ul>\n<li><b>How difficult is it to extract usable blocks?<\/b><br \/>\nSome materials are extremely fragile. Extracting blocks to make slabs of a usable size can be difficult, and this pushes the price up. This affects us at the manufacturing and fitting stage too \u2013 if fragile to extract they are even more so for cutting and polishing. There are many spectacular stones which fall into this category, like the Aran White granite pictured here:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-662e74b32daa0\" data-id=\"662e74b32daa0\" data-height=\"30\" data-height-mobile=\"30\" data-height-tab=\"30\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Stock or Bespoke?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe last, but by no means the least important, factor in our own granite worktop quotations is Stock versus Bespoke material. If we stock any material, even if quite expensive on the general wholesale market, we are able to pass on to our customers the benefits of buying in bulk, often direct from the quarries in the country of production. Thus Black Galaxy is not an especially cheap stone, but our turnover of it is large enough that we are able to give very competitive prices. Other similarly priced stones which are bought-in on a job by job basis may work out more expensive for the customer. Granite prices are complicated!
