Limestone Cowboy

solid ground: longevity and low maintenance strengthen the case for quartz

The soft countenance of limestone takes on the rough and rowdy strength of nonporous quartz with Cambria’s new Yorkshire color collection. Available in a standard polished finish, Yorkshire can also be honed to a more organic matte. The material doesn’t require sealing and won’t absorb bacteria. The company backs the surface with a 10-year warranty. Cambria, 866.CAMBRIA; www.cambriausa.com.
