Cool gray quartzite kitchens
Most of the white quartzites people know run warm. Sea Pearl goes the other way, with cool grey and soft green pearl tones that pair well with white or pale blue cabinets and a modern kitchen. It's a genuine quartzite, so it takes kitchen use without etching. These are illustrative examples of the look.
The look, in a few rooms
These are illustrative rooms we generated to show how the stone reads in a space. They are not photos of specific Rocky Tops installs. For our real, completed work, see the project gallery.

Quartzite
Often white or cream with dramatic grey or gold veining. Taj Mahal quartzite is the iconic example. Visual feel of marble with a harder, more crystalline surface.
Sealing is not optional: quartzite is porous enough that unsealed surfaces will absorb oils and liquids. Seal on installation, re-seal once or twice a year. We show every customer how before we leave.
- Buyers who want the marble look without acid-etching risk
- Kitchen islands where pots land directly on the surface
- Bathroom vanities where standing water is a risk
- Taj Mahal
- Mont Blanc (Super White)
- Sea Pearl
Quartzite must be sealed. This is the one we repeat most often at the shop: unsealed quartzite will stain. The sealing itself is easy and inexpensive, but it cannot be skipped.
