white granite

Light speckled rock

White granite is a type of granite stone characterized by predominantly white or light gray coloring, often with flecks or veins of darker minerals like black mica or gray quartz.

It's prized in construction and interior design for countertops, flooring, and monuments: The kitchen featured white granite countertops.

Despite the name, white granite typically contains visible mineral patterns rather than being pure white.
