Peperino is a natural volcanic stone known for its weather resistance. Compact and durable, it originates from Mount Cimino in the Anti-Apennines of Lazio. It takes its name from darker spots resembling peppercorns, giving it a visually uniform yet
never identical appearance. It is a versatile material, and ideal for craftsmanship. It has been chosen since ancient times by Etruscans and Romans, and gained widespread use especially during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance in public and private architecture, urban furnishings, and the refined constructions of sixteenth-century Italian gardens.
Solid, resistant to warping and to the corrosive action of atmospheric agents, peperino is the ideal choice for those seeking timeless and enduring furnishings—distinctive for their uniqueness and value, yet simple and natural.
Travertine is a sedimentary calcareous rock with a porous structure and warm light tones. Its surface is characterized by streaks of different colors ranging from ivory to honey, cream to walnut, gold to bronze, powder to scarlet red.
Thanks to its elastic qualities, good resistance to weathering, and ease of polishing and carving, travertine was the most commonly used material in the construction of ancient Roman buildings, which owe their pinkish and bright atmospheres, changing in every hour of the day, to this stone. Primarily originating from the area of Tivoli, Italian travertine is also extracted from quarries in Tuscany, Umbria, and Marche
It is suitable for various uses in construction and decorative applications. A robust material, resistant to temperature variations, impermeable to water, elegant, and radiant, it is perfect for those seeking timeless and classic furnishings which harmonize with any type of environment
The etymology of the word “marble” has Greek roots, deriving from the term “màrmaros,” meaning “shining stone.” It is a precious and beautiful metamorphic rock capable of reflecting light in different shades
appearing clear and translucent with a defined “wax” effect. Marble is the result of a specific process in which limestone and dolomite, two sedimentary rocks, combine and crystallize calcium carbonate
through the combined action of pressure and temperature. The marble used for our products is white type C.
