About Cypress

Cypress is a cool grey quartz with a crushed, crystalline texture running through it instead of veining, so it catches light in small facets rather than showing pattern. It is closer to a textured solid than a marble look.

Textures like this are useful when a room already has a lot going on: a patterned tile, strong cabinetry, or a busy backsplash. The counter adds interest without introducing a second pattern to coordinate.

What is quartz?

Quartz slabs are engineered from crushed natural quartz bound with resin and pigment. The result is a non-porous surface with consistent color and pattern that never needs sealing, making it a practical choice for kitchens and baths.

Cypress questions we get asked

Does the crystalline texture feel rough?

No. The texture is visual; the finished surface is smooth. You will feel a normal polished or matte quartz counter under your hand.

Will Cypress hide crumbs and water marks?

Better than most. A mid-grey with all-over texture is one of the more forgiving surfaces we sell, which is why it shows up in busy family kitchens.

Is it available in more than one finish?

Finish availability changes by shipment. Call (704) 394-1221 and we will tell you what is on the floor, and can show you the same color in both finishes if we have them.

Does Cypress need to be sealed?

No. Engineered quartz is non-porous, so there is nothing to seal. Warm water, a soft cloth and a mild soap if needed is the whole routine; skip abrasive pads, bleach and any sealer or topical treatment.

Can I put a hot pan on Cypress?

No. The resin binder in every engineered quartz can scorch or discolor, so use a trivet. If hot pans routinely land on your counter, granite or porcelain is the safer surface.
