Patagonia Green stands for a green, decorative quartzite effect with distinct character. Unlike quiet green quartzites, this material lives on contrast, on mineral inclusions and on a pattern that is deliberately designed to attract attention. In high-quality interiors in particular this can be very powerful, provided the surface is conceived as a defining element and not merely a functional one. At ROSSITTIS we carry Patagonia Green for projects that want to work with a more expressive green natural stone look.
In the market, Patagonia Green is traded as a quartzite and thus placed in the robust, high-quality hard rock family. Materials of this kind are of particular interest where colour and effect are wanted without moving into the more sensitive territory of marble or onyx. With this material group, the individual slab always remains decisive, because pattern, distribution and contrast can vary considerably.
For planning this means: Patagonia Green is above all a design stone with high visual presence. In kitchens, on tables or on walls this can work outstandingly well if the slab selection is made carefully and the rest of the material concept can carry the effect. As with many striking quartzites, the limiting factor is less the underlying technical performance than the right selection of the slab.
At ROSSITTIS, Patagonia Green is available as an unsized slab, as a kitchen worktop, splashback, table top, vanity top, wall cladding and as a bespoke cut for interior fit-out. The stone is at its strongest on islands, on reception counters, on tables and in interiors with a deliberate material dramaturgy.
Our honest assessment: Patagonia Green is not a neutral green stone and not a material for restrained minimal spaces. But if you are looking for a green quartzite with clear decorative force, this material can be very convincing.
Current availability from our warehouse.
Patagonia Green is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.
Politur ist die klassischste Veredelung für Quarzit — eine glänzende Oberfläche mit höchstmöglicher Farbintensität und ausgeprägter Tiefenwirkung. Je nach mineralischer Zusammensetzung kann die Wirkung stellenweise mattglänzend sein. Als Silikatgestein vollständig säurebeständig und kratzhart — ideal für Küchenarbeitsplatten und Sichtflächen.
Patagonia Green is easy to clean and maintain in everyday use. Sealing makes sense for kitchens, tables and bathrooms, even though quartzites are as a rule robust. Clean with pH-neutral stone cleaners and soft cloths. Avoid hard impact loads on edges and standing stains left on open areas or joints.
Yes, in principle. As a quartzite the material is well suited to kitchens, provided the substructure, edges and slab selection are properly planned.
In the trade the material is sold as a quartzite. What matters in practice above all is that it belongs to the robust hard rock group and is markedly more fit for everyday use than marble or onyx.
Clean the surface with pH-neutral natural stone cleaners and refresh the sealer according to use. Watch out for hard impacts on edges and for stains left standing for long periods.
Patagonia Green is generally more robust and less sensitive than green marble. Green marble, in turn, can appear more homogeneous or more classic. The decision depends on the look wanted and on the use.
Above all on kitchen islands, tables, splashbacks and wall surfaces where the green stone look is meant to be staged deliberately.
Because the pattern varies markedly from slab to slab. With striking quartzites in particular, the choice of the individual slab strongly determines the later effect in the room.
