Caesarstone Airy Concrete quartz kitchen countertops in Burr Ridge, Illinois.

Caesarstone Airy Concrete quartz on the kitchen countertops, with a 2.5-inch mitered edge and waterfalls.

Quartz is engineered stone: it never needs sealing and does not etch from lemon or wine. Its one weakness is heat, so hot pans go on a trivet. A Burr Ridge kitchen, in the western suburbs.

Airy Concrete is a Caesarstone quartz made to look like poured concrete: light to mid gray with darker clouding and small white flecks, and no veins. It gives the concrete look without concrete's cracking and staining, and it never needs sealing.
