What’s New for 2015

A new year means new trends, styles and designs in flooring. Opustone is already ahead of the game with three New and Now marble products and one granite design that will help kick your year off right.

Just because the beauty and elegance of marble has been cherished for over five centuries, it does not mean its style has to get old and dull. Opustone is proud to showcase three new marble slabs that are sure to floor anybody who walks in your house in 2015.

Creola Antique

Our Creola Antique design combines the traditional themes that the Greek and Romans adored over 500 years ago with a modern twist of a wood like appearance at first glance. It is an exquisite combination of the classic marble style with a hint of gray hues that is seldom seen in stone tiles. It creates a tone of edginess in the timeless look marble provides that only few designs master.

Calacatta Gold

The Calacatta Gold marble slab carries a more traditional look to it than the Creola Antique. Don’t let the elegance fool you though. It is built from a rock that is also refereed as a “crystalline rock” or “shinning stone,” meaning that it hoists durability and artistry all at once. The gorgeous gold trimmings that are found inside this exquisite stone inspired its name, Calacatta Gold. You will find gold glitters all over your floor as the light changes throughout the day, unwittingly changing the scenery in your room.

Panda

Our third “New and Now” marble is one of our most unique stones yet. Just as the panda animal symbolizes peacefulness, strength and compassion, our Panda marble floor will draw the same esteem into your room. The “Panda” marble hosts a rare union of black and white that is only seen in the most exotic home designs. This stone is sure to catch the attention of anybody who walks into the room, creating the same sense of peace and allure the Chinese dynasties worshiped pandas for.

Sky Gold

Our fourth new stone is introduced into our exquisite granite collection. Sky Gold, receiving its name from the touches of yellow inside the stone that give it an incessant movement, is an eye-catcher. With the durability that granite provides, the sun kissed look that Sky Gold provides will never be compromised.

Opustone is dedicated in providing the most alluring stones from the around the world to fit your home design desires. With our exceptional customer service and striking stones, we guarantee your vision is in our showroom.

Flooring Traditions Still Continue

You can never make a bad decision when choosing a traditional stone floor. No matter which room you incorporate the timeless rocks in, your design is sure to look stunning. Opustone has the perfect traditional looks in its marble, quartzite and onyx slabs to help you find that classic look you have been yearning for.  

MARBLE

The awe of marble’s beauty and elegance has only grown since it became popular over 500 years ago. The Greeks and Romans exposed the rock to popular culture and showed the amazing ability the stone has to be part of a masterpiece.  Over five centuries later, the traditional looks of marble can still turn any home design  into a beautiful work of art. Its ability to combine durability and elegance has been unparalleled. Marble has, is and will forever remain luxurious. Our grey Breccia Capraia (pictured) is a timeless design that makes no two floors the same.  A refined look is sure to unfold once you incorporate the stone into your  home.

QUARTZITE

Quartzite is an extraordinary traditional stone because of its inimitable characteristics. In essence, it is a simple stone, but its intricate patterns and designs set it apart. It boasts crystal like qualities that radiant a sparkling, glowing look. Rated as one of the toughest stones, quartzite is sure to give you a dash of elegance in a practical, durable manner. Due to the internal making of the rock, quartzite may portray different hues and shades depending on how the light hits it. No matter if your design includes gray or pale hues, your floor will never look the same throughout the day.  Our sutura slab (pictured) is a great example of how the different hues in the stone can look flawless no matter how you decide to incorporate them.

ONYX

Onyx is a clear-cut,calciferous stone that pushes the boundary of traditional meanings. Molded by the movement of water, it mixes its own unique features with the elegant and classic look of marble. Onyx can be placed in any setting and is very translucent when held in direct sunlight. In designing with onyx, you will quickly notice that no two tiles look the same. This will naturally add a creative and different element to your look because nobody will be able to replicate it. Onyx  is the perfect stone to use as an accent  piece in any room. With its transparency, you can place it with a different colored background  to create a really dramatic effect.  Opustone’s Brown Wave Extra (picture) slab is a great example of how the seemingly-simply stone can be the loudest item in your room.

Protecting Your Investment

Caring for Your Stone Slabs & Tiles

When most of us think of stone, we rightly think of a solid, strong material that can naturally withstand the test of time. A lesser-known fact is that stone actually requires some upkeep and maintenance in order to retain its appeal and quality. Just as wood and leather must be conditioned to remain at their best, so too do your stone slabs and tiles.

Day to day use can take a toll on stone surfaces. Take your kitchen counter tops for instance. These seemingly indestructible surfaces can be stained, etched and scratched by everyday items. Coffee, citrus, cooking oils and knives can all damage your luxurious stone surfaces.

Stones used in outdoor and living areas are exposed to even more abuse. They face off against the harsh conditions of nature and daily foot traffic, in addition to food spills.

The good news is that you can defend your precious stone slabs and tiles from their natural enemies. Opustone carries an extensive line of premier stone care and maintenance products that will keep all of your stone surfaces at their best.

In fact, Opustone’s selection of products addresses your needs based on stone type, finish type and what exactly you are looking to do. Whether you are looking for a cleaner, protection, maintenance or to refinish, you can find the best solution at Opustone.
