About Effusion

Effusion — the name refers to the outflow of lava — is a Brazilian quartzite with a slab pattern that combines natural force and aesthetics in a unique way. The characteristic red-orange and golden veins run through a dark, almost black ground mass and create a pattern reminiscent of cooling lava flows or glowing evening clouds.

As a quartzite, Effusion is petrographically one of the hardest and most resistant natural stones. High acid resistance, excellent abrasion resistance and frost resistance make it technically suitable for almost every field of application. The aesthetic force of the slab pattern does, however, call for deliberate planning: Effusion is a stone that takes the foreground itself and tolerates little competition from other strong design elements.

Finishes

Effusion is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.

Polished

Polishing is the most classic finish for quartzite — a glossy surface with the highest possible colour intensity and a pronounced sense of depth. Depending on the mineral composition, the effect can be satin-gloss in places. As a silicate rock it is fully acid-resistant and scratch-hard — ideal for kitchen worktops and feature surfaces.
