Yellow River

Yellow River is a granite from Brazil with a tan to gold ground, scattered dark brown and grey flecks, and wavy bands that run across the slab. It’s a durable granite recommended for kitchen counters or bathroom countertops.

 Characteristics

  • Yellow River is a veiny and patchy granite with a tan base that is accompanied by grey and gold accents.
  • Because of granite’s durability, Yellow River can be used for nearly any home or business remodeling project.
  • It is ideal for kitchen countertops, bathroom countertops, backsplashes, fireplace surrounds, home bar tops, commercial bar tops and outdoor kitchen countertops.
  • Its warm tone pairs well with white, cream or dark wood cabinets. Like other granites it handles heat well but is porous, so have it sealed after fabrication and reseal when water stops beading on the surface. Because the bands and flecks vary across the slab, look at the whole slab rather than a small sample before you decide.

    Yellow River questions

    Is Yellow River in stock as a full slab?

    Yellow River is not currently stocked; it is available to order. Call 414-998-0404 for lead time, or check live inventory for a similar colour available now.

    Does Yellow River need to be sealed?

    Yes. Yellow River is natural stone and porous, so your fabricator applies a penetrating sealer after installation and it is refreshed periodically. Granite tolerates heat well; a trivet under very hot pans still protects the sealer and prevents thermal shock at the edges.

    What is Yellow River best used for?

    Kitchen countertops, islands, bar tops, outdoor kitchens and fireplace surrounds. Granite's heat tolerance makes it a common choice near the cooktop.

    Can I buy Yellow River if I already have a fabricator?

    Yes. Come to the gallery, tag the granite slab you want, and your fabricator collects it. We also sell directly to fabricators, builders and remodelers across the Milwaukee area on wholesale terms.

    Yellow River in Kitchens and Bathrooms

    Three design visualizations showing how Yellow River reads at room scale: as a full-height kitchen backsplash, on a bathroom vanity, and on a waterfall-edge island. Each one was generated from the slab image on this page.
