Cristal White

Origin: China
Material: Natural granite (dense, exterior grade)

Cristal White is a clean, light granite with a bright white-to-silver base and fine, even crystallization. It’s positioned as a “light program” stone for memorial production where customers want a crisp, modern look with reliable outdoor performance.

Visual Character (Color & Pattern)

Tone: Bright white / silver-white

Pattern activity: Low; uniform, salt-and-pepper micro-grain

Texture: Fine grain; reads very clean on large polished faces

Finishing Behavior

Polished / Gloss: Maximizes brightness and contrast; premium showroom look

Honed / Matte (if specified): Softer, more architectural appearance; slightly reduced contrast

Engraving & Readability

Best results on polished inscription fields for sharp lettering and photo/etch work

On very light backgrounds, consider layout and font weight for maximum legibility

Recommended Applications (Memorial / B2B)

Uprights, slants, ledgers, bases, multi-piece sets

Strong choice for designs needing a light, clean palette with consistent program supply

Why It Works for Partners (B2B)

Program-friendly: stable, repeatable look for catalog items

Showroom value: bright polished surface photographs well

Production-ready: predictable grain supports consistent finishing and QC

Quality & Matching Notes

Natural variation is minimal, but grain tightness and tone can shift slightly by lot.

For matched sets / repeat programs: request same block/lot to align brightness and grain density.
