U3 is a natural granite quarried in Ukraine, characterised by a striking pink to rose hue dominated by pink feldspar crystals that contrast with a dark black matrix. The stone displays a medium grain size and a subtle, uniform veining that adds depth without overwhelming the colour palette. Its robust nature makes it suitable for both interior and exterior applications, including flooring, wall cladding, countertops, and landscape features. Recommended finishes are polished for a high‑shine surface or honed for a softer, matte look. Marmi di Carrara supplies U3 in blocks and 2‑3 cm thick slabs, cut‑to‑size, with real‑slab photographs available before purchase.
