Cygnus Brown Silk Natural Quartzite Mosaic Cutting Strips – 10 × 6 mm

Cygnus Brown Silk is a refined natural quartzite in earthy brown, taupe and charcoal tones, with subtle grey, silver and cream mineral movement. Its softly layered, silk-like pattern gives mosaics depth and a calm, organic character.

This nuanced brown stone works beautifully for natural landscapes, architectural details, animals, tree bark, shadows, geometric ornaments and sophisticated neutral backgrounds. It combines especially well with cream, white, black, beige, green, ochre and warm red stone.

These natural quartzite mosaic cutting strips are prepared for cutting into tesserae and smaller modules. They are suitable for traditional Roman mosaics, artistic panels, ornaments, portraits, tabletops, kitchen backsplashes, wall mosaics and decorative floor details.

Part of the Edelstein Atelier collection of more than 30 carefully selected natural stone colours. The consistent strip profile makes different colours easy to combine within one mosaic.

Natural Stone Characteristics

Quartzite is a natural material. Each strip is unique and may contain veins, mineral inclusions, tonal variations, small chips or microcracks. Occasional breakage can occur because of the natural structure of the stone and is not considered a product defect.

Cutting Recommendation

Use mosaic nippers or a traditional martellina to cut the strips into tesserae and custom shapes.

We recommend ordering 10–15% extra material, especially when consistent colour matching is important. Natural quartzite may vary slightly between batches.
