It is geologically metamorphic and structurally similar to granite. It is much harder than marble.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q2: Can I use Avatar Quartzite for a kitchen countertop?<\/strong> Absolutely. It is one of the best choices for kitchens because it resists scratching, etching (acid), and heat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q3: Can I get 3cm slabs?<\/strong> Yes, but please note that <strong>1.8cm and 2.0cm are our standard stock<\/strong>. 3cm slabs are considered a custom order.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q4: What cabinet colors fit best with Avatar Quartzite?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Black\/Dark Grey:<\/strong> Creates a moody, monochromatic look.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Natural Wood:<\/strong> Warms up the cool blue-green tones.<\/li>\n<li><strong>White:<\/strong> Provides a crisp contrast to the dark stone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Q5: Can you make a bathtub from this stone?<\/strong> Yes.

Slabs are packed face-to-face with plastic sheets to prevent scratching.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q9: What is the lead time?<\/strong> For standard 1.8cm\/2.0cm slabs, shipment is within 7-10 days.
