Granite comes in five (5) grades with exotic being the top (premium) grade or grades C through E. Exotic in terms of granite means that the granite slab has semi-precious onyx and extensive patterns and colors variations. Each grade does not mean, like Grade A, is less stable, but more dependent on the colors and design with the availability of that pattern. For example, a Grade A is the most common and most plain looking granite a homeowner can buy, thus making it the less expensive type of granite to purchase.
