Ultra-luxurious, quartzite surfaces are hand-constructed mosaics of natural gemstone material, such as rose, white and yellow quartz, and gray and brown agate. The lustrous allure of these surfaces emanates from the natural translucence of the semi-precious gemstones. These stones are highly resistant to heat, stains, and scratches and make excellent kitchen counter or bath vanity tops. (available by special order through The Stone Workshop).

Depending on the region where it formed, limestone ranges in colors from gray to deeper tones. Limestone can be finished to a high polish when the mineral dolomite is present, making it a wonderful material for counter tops and bath vanities.

A durable stone with heat-retention qualities, soapstone possesses talc, which gives it a soft, milky appearance. When soapstone has a higher level of talc content, it can be sculpted into shapes such as sink basins. Soapstone can also be used in kitchen tops and fireplaces.

A very popular engineered stone that’s available in 40 colors, CaesarStone is composed of 93% quartz. Considered four times stronger than natural stone, it provides a non-porous surface that is scratch, heat, chemical and chip resistant. CaesarStone owners find it a virtually maintenance-free option for kitchen and other surfaces.

This elegant marble comes in delicate, pastel tones. Onyx forms in caves as stalactites and stalagmites. It can be polished to a striking, glossy finish. It’s ideal for surfaces, such as furniture tops or a backsplash, that don’t require a high degree of heat-resistance.

Travertine is a variety of limestone, distinguished by the “holes” in its surface where carbon dioxide bubbles formed. Although not as stain-resistant as other materials, it translates beautifully into furniture surfaces.

This incredibly dense and hard natural stone creates sophisticated, durable surfaces. Heat and scratch-resistant, granite is also highly bacteria-resistant. Minerals appear as attractive flecks. Granite can achieve a high polish if desired. It is frequently used in kitchen counter tops and floors because it can stand up well to heavy usage.
