[quote=Anonymous]Get samples of the stones you like (marble, quartzite and granite) and test them for staining and etching using red wine, lemon juice, and vinegar. In my kitchen I'm using a honed black granite and a quartzite (brown fantasy) for my counters and island. Of the 3 stones quartzite is the hardest, and while there are marble-like patterns, it's definitely not marble. I really wanted marble too, but I'm an active and messy cook and I didn't want to be constantly worrying about damaging my countertop.[/quote]
