How does the feel of natural stone differ from faux stone?

Natural stone generally feels cooler to the touch than faux or engineered stone because it has a higher thermal mass and draws heat away from your hand faster. Engineered stones containing resins may feel slightly warmer or more plastic-like, though the difference can be subtle to an untrained touch.
