Black Galaxy
Origin: India
Material: Natural granite (dense, exterior grade)
Black Galaxy is a premium black granite with a deep, uniform black base and fine gold/copper mineral flecks that create a controlled “starry” appearance. It is positioned as a high-end showroom stone for memorial production where customers expect a strong, formal look with a distinctive premium detail and reliable exterior performance.
