Quartzite
natural stoneHidden under the Earth's mantle for millions of years, this stone reveals the subtlest nuances under the caress of the sun. Its changing reflections capture the imagination, inviting quiet contemplation of the beauty of the natural world and its myriad colours.
With their unchanging brilliance, quartzites evoke the silent resilience of the elements and symbolise eternal beauty.
Opting for quartzite is a choice for durability and efficiency, as well as authenticity. Quartzite is a metamorphic rock formed from quartz-rich sandstone that has undergone chemical metamorphosis in the earth’s crust under the effect of pressure and temperature. It is composed mainly of fused grains of quartz, which are themselves composed of silicon oxide molecules, giving it great hardness and strength.
