Quartz or quartzite? They sound like twins, but they behave very differently in a real kitchen. The short version:
Quartz is engineered: predictable, non-porous, and basically maintenance-free, which is why so many of our clients love it.
Quartzite is 100% natural stone: beautiful, heat-resistant, and one-of-a-kind, but is porous so it needs sealing (and usually a bigger budget).
Our go-tos? Calacatta Mirraggio Duo on the quartz side, and Calacatta Taj Mahal for quartzite — though if we're being honest, we've never met a quartzite slab we didn't love.
