5 Things You Should Know About Bookmatch Quartz Slab

What does bookmatching mean?

Bookmatching refers to matching two or more slabs of stone, so that the two adjoining surfaces mirror each other, like an opened book.Both slabs are identical and when joined together, they form a distinctive pattern where the veins flow continuously from one slab to the other.

Bookmatching is important when designing larger areas such as a kitchen island or a large accent wall for a shower. Bookmatching is not always possible in marble because of the variances found in natural stone. Quartz, however, can be manipulated and engineered for bookmatching.
