Macauba Blue is a blue quartzite. Its crystalline and semi-precious background ranges from light blue to cobalt. It has thick glacial white veins that occasionally incorporate small orange streaks. This natural stone adds to its undeniable beauty the resistance of quartzite, a variety of rock that is especially hard and resistant to environmental or wear aggression. Quartzites also have a low degree of porosity, which allows them to minimize the absorption of harmful substances or those that can cause stains.
