    Hello! The dark countertop is absolute black flamed granite. You can find it at IRG.

    Is that type of granite hard to care for? Was thinking of honed absolute, but my fabricator advised against it saying it was difficult to maintain and due to it's density, doesn't absorb sealer/enhancer well. Curious what your thoughts are. Thanks!
