Natural vs Engineered vs Porcelain Stone

With the wide range of stone selections on the market today, the differences can be overwhelming when deciding on a stone product that matches your application. As technology has progressed, stone manufacturers have continuously developed new and improved ranges of stone slabs to meet the consumers functional yet aesthetic requirements. Now, with endless options of quartz engineered stone available, a relative newcomer has joined the market; porcelain stoneware.

Copper or Gunmetal

Gunmetal may actually refer to a shade of gray that has a bluish purple tinge. Copper is an important metal and Metalier's copper metal finish is an important one in the range. It is one of the metals that takes particularly well to a patina. Think of copper in nature.
