Three kinds of stone, one showroom.
In the showroom we keep samples of every stone in the catalogue, so you can touch them, see them under natural light and combine them. Large pieces of marble and granite stand in the storage part of the workshop. We can take out a block and show how it behaves under the saw.
The differences between the three families are not cosmetic. They decide where the stone will work for years and where it will wear through in six months. Granite for the worktop, marble for the fireplace, travertine for the outdoor plinth by the pool.
A short walk through the showroom always helps more than a photograph on a screen: the colour of stone under LED is one thing, its colour under Adriatic light another.

Ten of the most common stones.
The most common choices, across all three families. The full catalogue opens behind the family cards above.
Four questions before you choose.
If stone is new to you, here is where the conversation usually starts. Read the full guide to granite, marble, hardness and water absorption on The stone.
01What is marbleSofter, decorative
A metamorphic rock of limestone origin: softer than granite, easier to cut and polish, at its finest under natural light. Traditionally used for sculpture, fireplaces, wall cladding and bathrooms.
02What is graniteHard, durable
An igneous rock, crystalline and hard. Resistant to wear and water absorption, suited to worktops, high-traffic floors and external cladding. Most of our gravestones are in granite too.
03What is travertineWarm, porous
A sedimentary rock with visible pores. A warm, Mediterranean character, at its finest in wall cladding, facades and as a surround around a pool. The hollow pores are filled with cement or left open as you prefer.
04How to choose stoneVisit is free
A visit to the showroom is essential. A photograph never shows the true colour and texture under natural light. Bring a plan of the space or a picture of how it stands now, and we will choose together. Samples are free to take home and try.
A photograph does not carry the texture of stone. Visit the showroom, touch a sample. The difference between two almost-identical grey slabs is felt by the hand before the eye ever sees it.
