Description
Oriental Soapstone offers a distinctive yet timeless character within the soapstone family, defined by its deep green-gray background and graceful white veining. The stone’s natural composition gives it exceptional resistance to heat, acids, and staining — making it a favorite for chefs, designers, and homeowners seeking understated sophistication and dependable performance.
The velvety matte finish feels smooth and inviting underhand, while the color’s subtle complexity pairs beautifully with warm woods, brushed metals, and modern cabinetry. Like all genuine soapstone, Oriental Soapstone gradually develops a soft patina that enhances its tone and movement, adding depth and individuality over time.
Perfect for Richmond VA kitchens, baths, bars, and fireplace surrounds, this stone brings natural artistry and quiet luxury to any environment. Routine care is simple — mild soap and water for cleaning, with optional mineral oil or wax applications to enrich and highlight its organic veining.
