White Macaubas Honed 3CM - quartzite

White Macaubas Honed 3CM Quartzite is a Brazilian natural stone known for its clean white background and long linear gray veining. The honed finish creates a soft matte surface that gives the stone a calm, modern appearance without the glossy shine of polished stone. Dynamo Surfaces supplies quartzite slabs from Arlington Heights (Chicagoland) to fabricators and designers across the Midwest.

What Does Honed Quartzite Mean?

A honed finish means the stone is ground smooth but not polished to a glossy shine. Instead of reflecting light, the surface has a soft matte texture that feels smooth and natural. Many designers prefer honed quartzite because it creates a modern, understated look while still showing the stone’s natural veining.

Honed vs Polished Quartzite

• Honed Finish – matte surface, softer appearance, modern design style
• Polished Finish – glossy reflective surface, stronger color contrast
• Leathered Finish – textured surface with subtle sheen

Honed quartzite is popular in contemporary kitchens because it produces a softer visual effect while still providing the durability quartzite is known for.
