Brown Silk is a Brazilian quartzite with a uniform brownish tone and a distinctive longitudinal structure. It has been created from pockets of various minerals over the course of millions of years under enormous pressure and heat, by flattening stones and pressing them longitudinally. This optical effect is often reminiscent of the texture of shiny brown silk, giving the quartzite its name. The structure and petrographic composition of the material is unique in the world, and causes wonder in every petrographer and geologist. The character of the quartzite is linear, elegant, flowing, warm and often reminiscent of wood.
