Cacatua Bahia is a Brazilian white granite prized for its bright, uniform background and subtle grain pattern. Originating from Brazil, the stone shows a coarse texture with occasional porphyritic granitic crystals that add visual interest without overwhelming the clean look. Its consistent colour and moderate veining make it ideal for both interior and exterior applications such as flooring, wall cladding, countertops, and outdoor paving. Suitable finishes include polished for a high‑shine surface or honed for a softer, matte appearance. Marmi di Carrara supplies Cacatua Bahia in 2‑3 cm thick blocks and slabs, cut‑to‑size, with real‑slab photographs available before purchase.
