The Enduring Beauty of Quartzite Slabs

March 27, 2025

When you’re specifying materials for high-end kitchens, bathrooms, or statement surfaces, durability and beauty need to go hand in hand. That’s why more and more interior designers are turning to the natural elegance of the quartzite slab. With a reputation for strength that rivals granite and aesthetic depth that recalls marble, quartzite delivers both form and function—without compromise.

At Nasco Stone + Tile, we understand that your clients expect materials that perform as beautifully as they look. With over 60 years in the business, our team has traveled the world to build a masterfully curated selection of quartzite slabs that meet the highest standards of design, durability, and distinction.

Why Choose Quartzite?


Quartzite is a metamorphic rock formed from sandstone under intense heat and pressure. The result is a dense, durable natural stone that offers a marble-like appearance—veins, soft layering, and subtle color variations—with a much harder surface.


This makes the quartzite slab ideal for kitchen countertops, bathroom vanities, shower walls, and even statement flooring. Unlike marble, quartzite is resistant to scratching, etching, and heat—an essential feature for busy spaces that demand long-term performance.


For interior designers working on luxury residential or commercial projects, quartzite offers a worry-free way to incorporate natural stone into high-traffic areas without sacrificing visual impact.

Curated by Experts: The Nasco Advantage


At Nasco, we’ve spent six decades refining our sourcing process to ensure every quartzite slab in our collection is hand-selected for beauty, character, and quality.

We don’t just offer slabs—we offer a highly edited and inspiring collection for designers who value premium, design-forward stone options. Whether you're after bold contrast or subtle serenity, our inventory is curated to support a wide range of design aesthetics.

Function Meets Aesthetics


The primary appeal of the quartzite slab lies in its unmatched ability to withstand daily wear while maintaining a luxurious appearance. Clients love it for its:

  • Scratch Resistance: Quartzite ranks high on the Mohs hardness scale, making it resistant to abrasions and ideal for high-use areas.

  • Stain Resistance: When properly sealed, quartzite resists staining from coffee, wine, oils, and common kitchen elements—perfect for chefs and families alike.

  • Low Maintenance: It requires less maintenance than marble while providing a similar visual effect.

  • UV Resistance: Quartzite won’t fade in sunlight, which makes it a solid choice for spaces with natural light or even outdoor installations.


When choosing a natural stone that must both perform and inspire, the quartzite slab is a leading contender.
