Another way to buy Spanish marble

  In any project in which an outdoor space has to be filled, the customer’s idea is reaching a natural combination between architecture and the surrounding nature. An ideal option is the use of the crazy paving stone. Rocks quarried in boulders and split manually to create irregular random tiles usable in both outdoor paving and wall cladding. Each country has is geological sources, from limestone to basalt, gneiss, andesite…Here in Spain they are Quartzite quarries . Quartzite is a metamorphic rock, when high temperatures and pressures produce the formation of a consistent rock composed almost entirely of quartz from the original sandstone. Pure quartzite is the most weather-resistant rock available, due to its high compressive and abrasion resistance, its non-porous features, hardness, uniformity and strength that makes it completely adequate for exterior applications. As visual properties, the Spanish quartzite has vivid colors, uniform or mixed, with a glossy pattern due to the

  Silver travertine is part from the travertine family which is a form of limestone deposited by mineral springs. Its porous structure presents a mixture of light and dark silver with beige, blue, brown and grey tones with significant movement throughout. That type is sourced from different countries, such as Italy, Iran and Turkey. It’s difficult to differentiate the origin when not known, as they differ internally in the petrographic structure, being the Italian the stronger one. Most common finishes are polished (pore open, pore closed transparent), honed (pore filled color) or also in sandblasted or brushed finish, very popular for wall cladding structures or exterior pavement. THE KEY Before all consideration about we have to point out about the cut as pattern changes dramatically if opted for one option or another.   VEIN CUT When cut showing the parallel veining CROSS CUT When cut showing clouds, waves of color TYPES TRAVERTINE SILVER WHITE A milky background crossed wit

 Travertine is the rock that is on the top right now. This sedimentary stone whose use in centuries is perfectly renowned was practically disappeared in the 70’s, set aside only for coffee tables. The search of architects for new products with a malleable behavior, and with a sense of nature, has put on the first step the use of the Travertine, as this rock can be tailored not only for any kind of building use (wall claddings for façades or pavement, polished or honed interiors) but overall for its plasticity, changing the ambience of new stores into a museum look, or converting buildings into timeless monuments. One of the most important values is the capacity of this stone to be use in big and home projects adding the movement of this parallel veining and small holes and playing with the warmly touch of this creamy rock approaching the architecture to the human tall. But we have not to set our eyes in the cream background, new designs are possible with the not so known varieties, w
