A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, to get a surface like this, you’d have to search high and low, sifting through slabs of jet-black natural stone for one with just the right amount of sparkle. Luckily today quartz manufacturers like ColorQuartz make it easy to get surfacing in dramatic colors with interesting patterns or shimmering particulate.

Star Wars from ColorQuartz is an intriguing black with just a hint of sparkle. Shimmering particles mixed in with deep, dark black call to mind the stars spread throughout the Milky Way and beyond. Looking deep into the material, it’s easy to imagine you’re traveling at light speed aboard the Millennium Falcon, keeping an eye out for Darth Vader and his ominous Death Star.

Though black is often associated with darkness, evil, and mystery, black can also be extremely clean and simple in today’s decor. It’s become a frequently used color in both residential and commercial environments. In fact, black has also come to represent luxury, formality, prestige, and sophistication.

When used for a kitchen or bath countertop, black surfacing such as Star Wars creates a striking focal point. It blends beautifully with just about any color cabinetry and lets you introduce pops of beautiful colors like red, orange, or yellow to really convey a sense of originality.
