Aurora Borealis Quartzite – The Stone of Light!

Legend has it that, in one of the greatest natural shows on earth, the magic lights of the northern hemisphere were trapped in stone awaiting discovery by the Inuit people. One warrior is said to have tried to free the light spectrum with his spear, but the strength of the rock retained its brilliance, and its incandescent colors were trapped inside forever.

Light Spectacular

Quarried in Brazil, IRG’s Aurora Borealis’ rainbow-like colorations can include white, lavender, gray, red or yellow. These jewel-toned striations add a depth and magnificence not often found. Add to that the practicality of quartzite – with its many benefits over marble in terms of durability, stain-resistance, and maintenance – and your most difficult decision will be selecting the slab.

Dawn of a New Era

This hard-metamorphic rock originated as sandstone until, over time, it recrystallized — giving it its beautiful and decorative sparkling pattern.
