The Stone

See the natural beauty of Garrigue up close — the surface texture, colour depth, and veining that make this quartz unique.

Colour:

Grey Dark Grey Brown

Mid-tone cool grey quartz with bold dark veining and subtle rust accents from the Forest collection.

Quartzforms Garrigue completes the Forest collection — named for the wild, aromatic scrubland that covers Mediterranean hillsides. The surface presents a mid-tone cool grey base with a subtle taupe undertone and a smooth semi-polished finish with very fine granular background texture. A prominent bold dark grey to almost black vein diagonally traverses the surface, branching into thinner irregular lines. Intricate web-like veining in off-white to light grey provides moderate density, while sparse fine accents of reddish-brown or rust-coloured veins add warmth. The overall character is a sophisticated dramatic marble-effect balancing bold and delicate patterns.

Garrigue is the most complex surface in the Forest collection — it layers multiple vein colours and textures into a single composition. The bold dark vein provides graphic impact, the off-white web creates textural depth, and the unexpected rust-coloured accents add a warmth that connects to the Mediterranean landscapes the name evokes. The mid-tone grey base sits in the comfortable middle ground between light and dark — neither demanding attention nor receding — making it a versatile foundation for the dramatic veining it carries.

In2Stone recommends Garrigue for clients who want visual complexity without committing to an extreme light or dark palette. The mid-grey base works with virtually any cabinetry colour — white for contrast, dark grey for tonal depth, or warm timber for natural warmth. The subtle rust accents create opportunities for warm metallic hardware in brushed copper or antique brass that echo the reddish-brown vein tones.

Frequently Asked

Questions About Garrigue

What is garrigue?
Garrigue is the aromatic scrubland found across Mediterranean hillsides — a landscape of wild herbs, lavender, rosemary, and tough evergreen shrubs growing on rocky terrain. The Quartzforms surface captures the rugged, complex character of this landscape through its layered veining and warm grey-brown palette.
What creates the rust-coloured accents?
Sparse fine veins in reddish-brown or rust tones are interspersed among the grey and white veining. These warm accents are subtle but distinctive, adding a Mediterranean warmth that pure grey surfaces lack. They catch the eye on close inspection without dominating the overall design.
Is mid-grey a practical worktop colour?
Extremely practical — mid-grey is one of the best worktop colours for hiding everyday marks, water spots, and minor wear. It is neither light enough to show dark spills prominently nor dark enough to show dust and fingerprints. The semi-polished finish further reduces visible marks.
How does Garrigue compare to the other Forest surfaces?
Sughero is warm off-white with brown-grey veining — light and warm. Betulla is bright white with bold charcoal veining — dramatic and cool. Magnolia is deep forest green with white veining — dark and botanical. Garrigue is mid-grey with layered multi-colour veining — the most complex and versatile of the four.
What is the finish on Garrigue?
Semi-polished with a subtle sheen — smoother and more reflective than matte but without the mirror-like quality of a full polish. This finish strikes a balance between contemporary and classic, and is practical for kitchens as it shows fewer marks than high-gloss while still reflecting some light.
★★★★★
"Excellent Service and Beautiful Results - Highly Recommended! I recently had In2stone install new quartz worktops in my kitchen, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was completely stress-free. The team was not only competitively priced but also incredibly friendly and professional throughout the entire process. They handled everything seamlessly - removing the existing sink, hob, and old laminate worktops before fitting the new quartz surfaces. The finished worktops are absolutely beautiful and have transformed my kitchen into a modern, minimalist space that I love spending time in. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the attention to detail really shows. I'm a very satisfied customer and would highly recommend In2stone to anyone considering new worktops. Well done to the entire team - you've exceeded my expectations!"
