St. Cecilia White is quarried from a bedrock quarry in Brazil. It is quarried from the lower levels of the Juparana St. Cecilia quarry, which is gold in color due to millions of years of oxidation. Because there are iron oxide particles throughout the quarry, oxidation spots may randomly appear on some slabs of St. Cecilia White. This granite is not recommended for wet areas such as showers or tub surrounds. During the polishing process, an epoxy resin is applied to the surface of the stone to fill in any natural pits, cracks or fissures that may exist. This does not affect the durability, maintenance or beauty of the stone. It is possible for some of the more minute pits, that are too small to effectively hold the resin, to reopen during other finishing stages. However, this will not detract from the overall quality or appearance of the stone. There will be noticeable variations in veining and movement between pieces. As a natural stone product, it is recommended that it be sealed to extend its longevity.
