The "level" means different things to different people and to different granite yards. It could mean how "exotic" or rare the stone is, which would have nothing to do with the quality of the stone. Or, "level" could mean how tough the granite is which is measured by "absorption rate", which is how dense the stone is (shown as a percentage). The lower the absorption rate, the more dense, and if the granite is very dense, it won't have to be sealed. Or, the "level" could mean simply the price level, which will vary by region, and by stoneyard (how easily they can get a supply of it)--you could find a stoneyard across town or even down the street which might have the stone at a different price level, because they have more of it. The price level can even differ this month to next month, again depending upon how easy it is to obtain.

Furthermore, one granite yard may call it "Solarius", and another with the same stone, or a stone that looks very similar, may call it "Golden Persa" or "Juperana Oro", and price it differently, just based on the name.

My advice would be to decide on your budget, and if you like the colors of Solarius, find stoneyards that carry granite in that color family for the amount you want to spend, without worrying too much about the name, or the level, since both name and "level" could change from yard to yard.

ditto, absolutely truly akchicago,

I understand. Thank you for such a in depth response. I originally picked a left over piece/remanent (Golden Persa) from our fabricator but this piece is only big enough for our island. Was thinking to go with black granite on the main/outer part of kitchen but decided not to. I liked the Golden Persa soooo much that our fabricator and I went to the yard where the piece/remanent came from and we were able to find another great slab from the same batch per say. The only difference was it was titled Solarius at the yard not Golden Persa. Could my fabricator have changed the name once he purchased the slab? The original piece/remanent is from the same yard so I am a little confused.
