Taj Mahal Quartzite
Taj Mahal Quartzite has a warm beige base crossed by gentle veins of grey and orange, giving it the soft look of marble with the strength of quartzite. Hand-picked from Brazilian quarries, it is one of our most requested marble-look stones for Sydney kitchens. Importantly, it is a natural quartzite, not a marble and not an engineered quartz, so it offers the elegance people love about marble with far better day-to-day durability.
Key Benefits of Taj Mahal Quartzite
As a quartzite, Taj Mahal is hard (around 7 on the Mohs scale), heat- and scratch-resistant, which makes it well-suited for a working kitchen as well as a feature wall. Unlike marble, it will not etch from everyday acids like lemon juice or wine, so it is forgiving in daily use. Its low porosity means it only needs sealing every two to three years, less often than marble. The beige and warm-toned veining reads as a soft block of colour across a room and holds the eye up close, pairing well with both timber and white joinery.
Best for: kitchen benchtops, splashbacks, feature walls and bathroom vanities.
After 20 years supplying natural stone across Sydney and Newcastle, we have found Taj Mahal to be one of the easiest marble-look quartzites to live with. See it in person at our Greenacre or Beresfield showroom, since photos do not capture its depth and movement.
