Silver Amber is a light, bright stone. It is a white quartzite with silver streaks running across it, bright and simple. The light color opens up a small patio and makes a path easy to see at dusk. Being quartzite, it is hard and dense. It pairs with modern homes, white stucco and gray trim, and it suits clean, minimal gardens. ## White with silver The white base keeps the stone bright in sun and shade. Silver streaks add a little movement so it never looks blank. Silver Amber sits well next to darker stones too, which makes it useful as a border or accent. Look closely and each piece has its own streak pattern. Mixing pieces keeps a patio lively. Silver Amber can be hard-set in mortar or soft-set on sand and decomposed granite, depending on thickness. Ask staff which pieces suit your base. ## Where to use it Patios, walkways, stepping stones and pool areas are all good fits. The light color reflects sun, which many owners like in hot Sacramento summers.
