AOS 4082 Ylämaa Brown Granite is a high-quality, coarse-grained brown granite that represents Finnish natural stone at its best. The colour of the stone varies depending on the surface finish. When polished, honed or water-washed, the stone displays a deep dark brown tone with an elegant appearance. When flamed or bush-hammered, the surface becomes lighter and more vibrant. When wet, the stone always appears darker brown, enhancing the surface with a strong and natural character.
This brown granite is well suited for outdoor use in projects where durability, timelessness and a natural colour palette are essential. Ylämaa Brown Granite is a traditional and highly valued choice for both public and private environments.
Typical applications include:
-
cobblestones and street paving
-
patio slabs and walkways
-
stairs and step elements
-
façade and plinth cladding
-
squares, plazas and other public outdoor spaces
