Granite from India

Azul Ellora

Azul Ellora is an Indian granite with a classic bright white base tone, dramatically distributed deep black mineral phenocrysts and subtle blue-grey accents. Salt-and-pepper character with a distinctive tonality — a high-performance dimension stone with full acid, heat and frost resistance for kitchens, stairs and external façades.

Indian granite (an acidic plutonic rock) from the southern Indian plutonic complexes. Mineralogically dominated by plagioclase feldspar, potassium feldspar, quartz and smaller mafic components (biotite, amphibole). A subtle blue tonality produced by specific plagioclase compositions. Mohs hardness approx. 6, high compressive strength, low water absorption, fully acid- and heat-resistant.

About Azul Ellora

Azul Ellora is an Indian granite from the southern Indian plutonic complexes.

Geologically this is a classic acidic plutonic rock (granite) with a characteristic plagioclase-quartz-feldspar composition and proportions of mafic minerals. The subtle blue tonality of Azul Ellora is a visual nuance that can arise in some Indian granites through specific plagioclase compositions (comparable to the famous Volga Blue, but markedly subtler).

Finishes

Azul Ellora is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.

Polished

Polishing is the most classic finish in the hard stone segment — a mirror-smooth, high-gloss surface with the highest possible colour intensity and maximum depth effect in the mineral structure. As an acid-resistant silicate stone, polished granite is easy to care for and the first choice for kitchen worktops, wall claddings and prestigious exposed surfaces.

Care & fabrication

Azul Ellora is a dense granite with high compressive strength and complete acid, heat and frost resistance.

Daily cleaning: soft microfibre cloth, warm water and a pH-neutral natural stone cleaner.

Do not use: concentrated acids, steel wool.

Sealing: advisable every 18–36 months.

Kitchen worktop: hot pans can be set down directly.

Repair: scratches in the polish can be evened out by professional re-polishing.

Frequently asked questions

Where does Azul Ellora come from?

From the southern Indian plutonic complexes.

Is Azul Ellora really blue?

A subtle blue tonality — not a dramatic blue like Volga Blue or Azul Bahia. The blue character is a visual nuance of the plagioclase composition.

Is Azul Ellora suitable for the kitchen?

Yes, excellently. With a Mohs hardness of 6 the granite is scratch-resistant, acid-resistant and heat-resistant.

Which finishes are available?

The finishes available from stock are listed in the »Finishes« block on this page.

How much material do you currently have in stock?

We currently carry 10 raw slabs of Azul Ellora in 20 mm thickness.

What does Azul Ellora cost?

The price depends on the batch, thickness, surface finish and fabrication — with natural stone there is no serious flat rate per square metre. Business customers see prices once their B2B account is activated; private customers receive a complete quote through a fabricator near them.
