Avocatus quartzite

Quartzite · Brazil

Areas of dark olive green and a few fine white lines make up the photo of Avocatus quartzite. It scratches glass, a knife does not mark it and it works every day in kitchens and bathrooms.

What Avocatus Quartzite Looks Like

Dark olive green in the background, with areas of green at different depths melting into a cloudy pattern. A few white veins, fine and broken, cross that green in the slab in the photo and leave a medium contrast. The pattern changes moderately within the slab, which the photo shows polished and shiny.

On a bathroom or terrace floor, choose honed or leathered: the polished shine in the photo turns slippery when water wets it.

Avocatus Quartzite Finishes

The photo shows polished. Honed and leathered take away that reflection and are the ones for a floor that gets wet.

  • Polished

    The one in the photo: a smooth surface with a mirror reflection, slippery on a wet floor.

  • Honed

    It dulls the reflection of the olive green and leaves the slab matte, ready for a bathroom floor.

  • Leathered

    A surface with relief and a low shine, without the mirror of a polished finish.

Questions about Avocatus Quartzite

How does Avocatus differ from Jadore quartzite?

In its photo, Jadore is a cloudy sage green with a dark green zone at the bottom. Avocatus, in its own, stays a dark olive green crossed by a few fine white lines. Both are cloudy-patterned quartzites; the shade of green sets them apart.

Does Avocatus quartzite work for a kitchen countertop?

Yes. An Avocatus countertop takes no mark from a knife and carries a hot pot far better than marble. A cutting board is still a good idea, but for the knife's edge.

Does Avocatus quartzite need sealer?

An Avocatus offcut with a drop of water on it decides: if the green stone darkens, it is time to seal. There is no rule for all of them, because porosity depends on the quartzite. Mild soap is enough to clean it.

Is the photo a real slab?

Real, yes: the photo shows a full Avocatus slab in a close shot. Every slab is different. Before you buy, we send you photos of the slabs available for your order.

Does Avocatus quartzite reach my country?
