As honed granite is more of the less popular option compared to polished granite, using it for your kitchen can help make it more unique and different. There is a very high demand for granite stone in the market not only because it is the cheaper alternative to marble but also because it is heat and stain resistant. Plus, when granite is maintained well it can last a life time. However, shiny and reflective polished granite may not be for everyone this is why honed granite is a good alternative.
