On hand at our Los Angeles yard: one slab of Pandora, a 2 cm blue with semi-white, ivory, white, beige, grey, and gold quartzite from Brazil in a polished finish. Lot 33-SR measures about 126″ × 75″.

This slab

The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 126″ × 75″, about 66 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is blue with semi-white, ivory, white, beige, grey, and gold. Natural stone still varies inside that description, so the slab itself is the reference for movement and shade. This material is recorded as quarried in Brazil.

The polished finish is reflective and lets the color read clearly. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.

In the yard

Lot 33-SR at our Los Angeles yard shows one slab in stock, none on hold, and one slab available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.

With one slab available, it suits a project that can be cut from a single piece.

Where it works

For this kind of stone, the usual applications are kitchen countertops, islands, and vanities. The right use still depends on the finish, the thickness, and how the slab will be cared for after it is installed. Inspiration photos show this stone in an Outdoor Bar / BBQ.

The material

Quartzite begins as sandstone and is metamorphosed into a hard, quartz-rich stone. It is chosen for kitchens and islands when a project wants marble-like movement with more scratch and heat resistance than marble. Density and absorbency still vary by quarry, so sealing should be confirmed on the slab in front of you, not assumed from the name. Movement can change across one lot, which is why the pieces are best compared side by side in daylight.

About Pandora

Pandora Blue is an extraordinary quartzite from Brazil, celebrated for its dramatic, wave-like patterns and high-crystal structure. This natural masterpiece features a sophisticated interplay of translucent white and deep blue tones, often accented by smoky grey and gold veining. Composed primarily of mica and quartz, it offers exceptional light transmittance, making it a premier choice for backlit feature walls and luxury countertops. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, it boasts a Mohs hardness of 7, providing durability superior to most granites. Interestingly, its unique mineral composition can include rare red mineral specks, ensuring that every slab remains a one-of-a-kind work of art.
