Amazzonite Quartzite Finishes
The photo shows the polished finish. Honing lowers the shine; leathering changes the feel.
-
Polished
The one in the photo: high shine and reflection across the whole surface of the slab.
-
Honed
No shine and a soft feel: in showers and on interior floors it is less slippery than polished.
-
Leathered
Textured surface and muted shine: a different surface to the touch on tables and walls.

Frequently Asked Questions About Amazzonite Quartzite
Does Amazzonite quartzite work for the kitchen?
Yes. Its surface scratches glass and a knife blade passes without leaving a mark. Next to a marble, lemon, vinegar and a hot pot leave far fewer marks on it. Cut on a board: the stone dulls the edge, and the board protects it.
How does it differ from Amazzonite Cristallo quartzite?
The two share the name, but the patterns take different paths. In its photo, the Cristallo looks blue-green crossed by pinkish-white veins and fine reddish lines. This Amazzonite, in its photo, shows turquoise patches surrounded by pink and burgundy areas. You can compare it with Amazzonite Cristallo quartzite before you decide.
Does Amazzonite quartzite need sealing?
Not always. Some quartzites absorb little water and others need sealer, because porosity varies from one stone to the next. Check it with a drop of water on the stone: if the area under the drop darkens, that slab needs sealer. Wash it with water and mild soap.
