Where It Works
In the kitchen, soapstone shines next to the stove and sink. It tolerates hot pans, does not etch from lemon juice or vinegar, and never needs sealing, which makes it a favorite for farmhouse sinks and baking stations.
In the bathroom, a soapstone bathroom countertop gives a soft, matte look that pairs well with brass and matte black fixtures. Because it is dense, it stands up to water around the faucet.
The tradeoff: soapstone is softer than granite. Use cutting boards, and know that small scratches can be rubbed out with fine sandpaper or a little mineral oil. Many owners like the patina it develops over time.
