The 3D scene is generated in real time from an actual photograph of the slab and is intended as a guide. In natural stone the veining, tone and texture differ on every slab; the final choice should be made on a physical sample or slab approval.
Colour range sampled from the slab
Golden Meteor gives any space an assertive presence with its unusual appearance. It stands out for its distinctive look and character, with black, gold and brown tones combining into something quite unlike anything else.
Care note
Quartzite is very hard and stands up well to daily use. Even so, because it is porous, impregnation every 2–3 years is recommended; a neutral pH cleaner is enough.
