Quartzite: an elegant and robust natural stone
Who says you can’t have it all? The unique characteristics of quartzite bring together the best that nature has to offer. This durable natural stone is one of the hardest materials to be found.
Quartzite effortlessly combines elegance and ease of care in an indestructible, long-lasting material. In fact, quartzite is a metamorphic rock formed from sandstone. Heat and high pressure have melted the quartz minerals together into a hard, very compact rock. This process, which takes centuries, creates the characteristic, elegant appearance of quartzite. The colour palette and veins are different in every slab. This authentic spectacle guarantees a unique result time after time.
