Exotic Blue Lava Quartzite Kitchen Countertop & Island in McLean, VA

Granite Vision transformed this luxury McLean, Virginia residence with an exotic Modern Blue Lava Quartzite kitchen countertop and statement center island. Quartzite is nature’s hardest dimensional architectural stone, forged deep within the earth under intense tectonic heat and pressure, offering hardness superior to granite alongside the fluid, dramatic visual veining of fine marble.

The centerpiece of this kitchen is an expansive center island fabricated from a hand-selected Blue Lava quartzite slab from our live indoor slab inventory. Our master fabricators bookmatched the flowing grey, navy, and charcoal crystalline veins across the prep counter and seamless perimeter runs. The natural crystalline structure provides exceptional heat resistance against boiling cookware and impervious scratch resistance for a lifetime of gourmet cooking.
