Trusted brands, quality worktops

Brown Silk Quartzite is a uniform brownish tone with wood like veins of white and black giving it a distinctive longitudinal structure. This exotic quartzite is quarried in Brazil and is a stone that is especially good for kitchen worktops and islands, wall cladding, and exterior design projects. It is sometimes also called Brown Silk Granite, Beauty Musk Quartzite and Meteor Shower Granite.

QUARTZITE
A naturally occurring metamorphic rock. It is created when sandstone is subjected to extreme heat and pressure caused by tectonic plate compression in the crust of the earth. The stone is mined and sawn into slabs which we later precisely cut to become your new Worktops. The tops are polished and sealed for beauty and durability.

POLISHED
Without a doubt, the glossiest and smoothest finish, highlighting the colours, patterns, and white spots. Dark shades create a mirror effect.

LEATHERED
The surfaces is given a finish that allows the natural stone to have a textured appearance, while still maintaining the natural colour of the stone. Leathered surfaces typically have a soft sheen. They are not nearly as reflected and shiny as polished surfaces.

Slabs sizes are around 3000mm x 1900mm, 20mm or 30mm thick with a polished or leathered finish.

Being a natural stone, each block of Brown Silk varies with its own unique beauty, with slightly different shapes, patterns, colours and gradients emerging. Therefore, it is recommended that you view the stone in person and select the exact slabs that you are going to be using for your project.
