The Moisture Master

Ivory Brown (also known as Sivakasi) from Tamil Nadu has a unique property: it is highly porous for a granite. While this sounds bad, it actually allows the stone to 'breathe'.

It absorbs rainwater and dries out quickly without trapping moisture that leads to deep mold growth. Its natural streaks of pink, beige, and grey hide wet patches effectively, making it a favorite for rainy climates like the UK and Ireland for exterior cladding.
