Granite

Granite is normally a coarse-grained igneous rock that is composed of quartz, feldspars, and micas. The dark minerals are hornblende or biotite. Granite is by far the most common rock found in our planet’s outer crust. Granite is formed by the cooling of magma in the ground.

Marble

Marble is metamorphosed sedimentary carbonate rock. Limestone or dolomite (carbonate rocks) are the typical base minerals. The recrystallization of the carbonate minerals results in marble. Often, the original structure of the carbonate rocks is modified during metamorphism rendering the marble unrecognizable from its original state.

The swirling and veins in marble result from mineral impurities, which are in layers in the original limestone or dolomite.

quartz

As the name implies, it is a countertop product that has been made of quartz and resin. Before granite slabs were resigned, engineered stone had one major advantage over its natural counterpart; it was difficult to stain. Now with the advent of resigned slabs, that advantage is gone. The primary difference is appearance. Man-made products come in a large range of consistent colors, which do not occur naturally.
You often see engineered stone being used in commercial settings or contemporary ones. You get to decide which look is the best for your project.

MARBLE - Classic And Timeless

Marble has a long history as a classic and luxurious home feature. With its distinct veining and heat-resistant properties, this stone is a popular choice among homeowners. At Stone House by Temponi, Kitchen Countertops, and Cabinets, we have provided our customers high-quality and elegant marble for more than 20 years.

Marble’s pure beauty has been seen in its stark color and dark, natural veins. But being a natural stone, marble has inherent imperfections. There is a reason marble has been traditionally used for sculptures – as far as stones go, it is soft and easy to work with. This makes it easy to include marble in your ideal kitchen or bathroom design. However, keep in mind that marble is sensitive when exposed to acids, such as lemon juice or vinegar, and can be easily chipped or damaged without the proper care and sealant. If you are a homeowner that has fallen in love with the character and unique charm that comes with age and use, marble might be the right choice for your home.
