Surface Details

Surface: Polaris
Finish: polished
Overview: Polaris is a polished quartzite with varied striations of tones of grey which includes veining in tones of gold, brown and black. The linear movement and soft color variation in this stone adds a dramatic and sophisticated look to any space. During the polishing process, an epoxy resin is applied to the surface of the stone to fill in any natural pits, cracks, or fissures that may exist. It is possible for some of the more minute pits that are too small to effectively hold the resin, to reopen during other finishing stages. However, this does not affect the durability, maintenance, or beauty of the stone. Due to the qualities of the stone, the slabs are book-matched, meaning slab one and slab two will be cut and polished to create a mirror image of each other. These are then kept in sequence, which allows for a consistent flow in pattern. Finally, a mesh backing is adhered to the back of the stone to ensure safety while handling and fabricating the slab.
