Antique Grey Quartz
Description
Antique Grey Quartz is an engineered quartz surface with a solid sage grey-green with fine white hairline veins.
A soft muted tone for bathrooms and feature walls; pairs with matt black fittings.
Antique Grey Quartz is stocked as 1800mm x 2700mm slabs, 18mm thick, with a polished finish.
Origin & Technical Profile
Origin: Manufactured in China and imported by FB Marble.
What the slab looks like: A solid sage grey-green with fine white hairline veins.
| Material | Engineered stone: crushed quartz bound with polymer resin and pigment |
|---|---|
| Country of origin | China |
| Finish | Polished / Re-Polishable |
| Thickness | 18mm |
| Slab size | 1800mm x 2700mm |
| Composition | Roughly 90–93% quartz aggregate, the rest resin and pigment |
| Density | About 2.3 – 2.4 g/cm³ |
| Water absorption | Near zero (typically ≤ 0.05%) — no sealing needed |
| Hardness | About 7 Mohs (quartz aggregate) |
| Heat | Resin can scorch above ~150 °C — always use a trivet |
| Outdoor use | Not recommended — strong UV can yellow the resin |
| Fabrication | Cut wet only: dry-cutting quartz releases crystalline silica dust |
Practical note: Daily cleaning with mild soap is enough; avoid oven cleaner, paint stripper and other strong solvents that attack the resin.
Technical figures are typical values for this type of material; colour can shift slightly between production batches, so match slabs from the same batch.
Choosing Antique Grey Quartz
The look: Antique Grey Quartz has a solid sage grey-green with fine white hairline veins. A soft muted tone for bathrooms and feature walls; pairs with matt black fittings.
Living with the pattern: Because Antique Grey Quartz is veined, ask to see the full slab before cutting: the veins should run the same way across joints and around corners. A bookmatched or vein-matched layout costs a little more slab but looks far better on islands and walls.
Where it works best: Modern kitchens, bathroom vanities, wall cladding and office reception counters.
What goes with Antique Grey Quartz:
- White or light-grey cabinets for a soft, modern look
- Charcoal or black cabinets for a darker, contrast kitchen
- Matt black or gunmetal taps and handles
- Concrete-look or plain white floor tiles
