Does anyone have quartzite installed?
Comments (7)We went through Home Depot and picked out an Antigua Quartzite slab from Daltile. I tried to scratch the sample with a razor knife and it I honestly couldn't see a mark. The sample was able to score glass quite deeply. I tested it for stains and the only thing that left an almost undetectable stain in the veining was red wine left to soak for 24 hours. I believe sealing will stop that from happening. I also left lemon juice on it as well and it did not etch. Our installer (Home Depot outsourced) was shocked that we paid $68 a sq. ft. Less than the fancy quartz that I was easily able to scratch when I tested the sample. It's absolutely beautiful installed. I love it. I can't stop looking at it. Originally I wanted corian but changed my mind when I saw this. Now I'm not sure about what to do about the backsplash....See MoreMont Blanc Quartzite or Marble? Anyone Have This Countertop?
Comments (8)I did not see the original posting, but neither photo looks like what is called Mont Blanc in my area. I purchased three slabs of Mont Blanc quartzite in Anaheim, southern California. This is a stone that is quarried in Brazil and looks similar to Perla Veneta. I had considered White Macaubus, which is more white, but decided I wanted to go with a warmer color. ....See MoreDoes anyone have Ijen Blue Quartzite in their home?
Comments (31)@lynn The backsplash is a warm off white to almost taupe. In some lights done of the tile can look cream, but if you put it next to cream, it is obvious it is white. It was difficult to find a tile the color I needed, as creams are too brown, and most whites were too cool for what I needed with my tile floors (because my old floor tile I couldn't afford to change is that color and it looked dingy with bright whites). It is slightly warmer than white Chloe tile. My backsplash will only be against my perimeter quartz which has those colors (again due to my floor tile, which of course, I learned mid-install needs replacing but have to stick to design now). It does look nice by the ijen blue, as I think the biggest key is keeping the backsplash simple and Jerry the ijen be the star. The backsplash is supposed to get installed tomorrow so I'll share what it looks like. Hopefully as good as I think! 😁...See MoreAravalli Quartzite - does anyone have this?
Comments (4)Arizona Tile (and similar large tile/slab showrooms) come up with their own names for many of the slabs they sell. I would want to confirm that it isn't marble. Did you read the old Geology threads by karin_mt ? She has some tests you can do at the slab yards to get a better idea of what the slabs are and how they might perform....See Moreromy718
