The classic tones of white and gray stand the test of time no trends in sight. Natural stone slabs with cream and gray coloration are our best sellers at CRS for a reason; they are extremely adaptable to traditional, transitional, or modern home design. So it stands to reason that our Matira quartzite imported from Brazil is one of our most popular natural stones. CRS Marble & Granite has partnered exclusively with Brazilian stone extraction and processing company Thor Granitos to bring our customers a beautiful natural-stone option like Matira quartzite.
Matira makes an elegant statement with very subtle lightgray veining that moves across an off-white slab. Its white background is reminiscent of Italian Calacatta marble, while its whisper-light veining resembles Carrara marble. As a quartzite, Matira is a natural stone that is known for its heat resistance, hardness, durability, and ability to mimic the look of marble without the maintenance. It is a good choice for walls, floors, countertops, backsplashes, and more applications, and its durability isn’t limited to indoor use. It can be finished in many ways, such as polished, honed, and brushed.
Not to be confused with quartz, which is an engineered stone, quartzite is one of the most indestructible natural stones in the marketplace. Although it’s tempting to choose a natural stone from photos of slabs and completed projects, it’s best to choose this stone in person. So we encourage you to visit CRS to select the perfect stone for your home-improvement needs. We have created one of the nation’s largest countertop-selection showrooms, stocking more than 450 quartzite, Dolomite, marble, and soapstone slabs, and more than 70 engineered quartz slabs. In all, we have more than 10,000 slabs from which to choose.
Choosing the right stone is a big decision, and one you’ll want to make up-close and in-person at our showroom and not via photos on the web, where colors can be deceiving. What you see online may be the perfect vision of your dream kitchen or foyer entrance, but it’s best to back that up with the full experience of visiting the showroom and seeing the actual slab you are considering. Remember, quartzite is a natural stone created in the earth and, as such, there will be slight variations from slab to slab.
If you’d like to avoid making trendy purchases that will be a large part of your day-to-day life for many years, Matira quartzite for your home-design project is a good bet. Visit the CRS indoor showroom to choose a specific Matira slab for your home or browse very rare colors of natural stone products and quartz slabs.
