This high-quality procedural granite shader has been carefully developed to replicate the elegant look of polished white granite used in real-world architecture and interior design. Built entirely within Blender using a 100% node-based workflow, this shader delivers unmatched realism, flexibility, and rendering efficiency – all without the need for external texture maps.

It provides users with a versatile solution for rendering clean, high-resolution granite surfaces with complete artistic control over parameters such as grain size, color variation, glossiness, and reflectivity. Whether you're creating architectural renders, product visualizations, game environments, or cinematic shots, this procedural shader is optimized for fast workflows and stunning visual fidelity.

• Polygons: 10,420
• Vertices: 10,428
• UV Mapping: N/A (procedural material – no unwrapping required)
• Geometry: Polygon mesh with smooth shading

A realistic high-poly UV sphere mesh is included in the scene to showcase the shader under ideal lighting conditions and is fully optimized for testing and visualization purposes.

• Created entirely using Blender shader nodes – no image textures required
• Infinite resolution with seamless tiling – perfect for both close-up and large-scale renders
• Editable grain density, pattern variation, reflectivity, and brightness directly from the shader nodegroup
• Built for Blender v4.2.2 and Cycles render engine
• Lightweight and render-friendly — ideal for complex scenes without sacrificing quality

• Utilizes realistic light interaction with Fresnel-based reflections
• Fully optimized for Cycles — delivering balanced results under both HDRI and studio lights
• Includes a professionally lit Blender preview scene using high dynamic range lighting (HDRI)
• No additional setup needed – just open, render, and customize as required

To ensure maximum compatibility and flexibility in your pipeline, this asset comes in multiple formats:

• .blend – Blender file with fully configured shader + preview scene
• .fbx – Exported mesh with assigned material group
• .obj – Universal format for broad support
• .stl – Print-ready geometry for prototyping or 3D printing scenarios

1. Architectural VisualizationIdeal for visualizing floor tiles, wall panels, kitchen counters, bathroom surfaces, reception desks, and other modern interiors that require a clean polished stone finish.

2. Game Design and Real-Time EnginesUse this lightweight granite shader in real-time game engines to simulate realistic surfaces without relying on texture baking or large image maps.

3. CGI, Film, and AnimationProvides photorealistic surfaces for cinematic shots, visual effects, and high-resolution closeups, where detail and clarity are crucial.

4. Product Visualization and PrototypingPerfect for demonstrating premium materials in jewelry, consumer products, or industrial prototypes where a polished, stone-like surface is desired.

5. Educational or Presentation RendersSuitable for shader demonstration, look development tests, or educational material where procedural workflows are required.

• Comes with a ready-to-render Blender scene with calibrated lighting
• Includes HDRI environment and studio lights for realistic highlights and shadows
• Render settings already optimized – perfect for quick previews or final output
• Cleanly organized node setup for easy modification and learning

This model offers significant advantages over typical texture-based shaders:

• Truly Procedural: No dependency on external files or image maps – ensuring maximum portability, speed, and scalability.
• Ultra-Customizable: Adjust surface details like grain size, gloss, reflectivity, brightness, and color directly in Blender.
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for professionals working in architecture, games, cinematics, or product design pipelines.
• High-Quality Visual Output: Delivers photorealistic results with minimal setup time.
• Optimized Workflow: Includes preview lighting, sample mesh, and clean node structure – perfect for artists, students, and developers.

If you need a polished stone material that looks great, performs smoothly, and can be fully tailored to your scene — this procedural white granite shader is the right tool for the job.
