MARBLES WITH FOSSILS

The fossilized stone materials, from the most precious to the most valuable for their originality and uniqueness and opulence. The fossilized marble is the stone material more appreciated in the world. Since it is a metamorphic rock, linked to exposure to high temperatures and pressures suffered during the years in which the material was present in nature, it is shows a great natural crystallization of calcium carbonate and, for certain species in the world, it is also rich of fossils as various species of the AMMONITES and the NAUTILUS.
These fossils are similar to large snails with diameters of 20/30 cm, shells of mollusks or corals and crinoids, of which the current sea urchins and starfishes are distant descendants, making it a high-quality material, even more valuable, with sophistication and uniqueness. For its great typological and physical characteristic, marble represents one of the finest materials in the world.

In particular, the use of marble in the construction industry has always been considered an element of sophistication, elegance, brightness, both for internal and external environments. Furthermore it is characterized by a low refractive index which allows light to penetrate inside the structure of the stone, giving it a particular brightness. The veining and the presence of fossilized elements in its interior contribute to exalt its beauty and value.
From its extraction to the machining, to the treatments this natural fossilized stone is one of the most expensive and the final cost depends on several factors: the type of the cave, cutting techniques and the processing techniques. The fossilized marble can undergo different treatments and workings, both aimed at the exaltation of his natural value. In addition, from polishing to smoothing, flaming (for external use) bushhammering (for a carved effect), scuffing, sanding and brushing (to make the surface look more antique). The marble can provide unique elements, in the cylinder block, decoration and inlay.

Kitchen with ammonites

Deposits of rocks with numerous fossils of marine origin, among which an immensity of ORTHOCERAS (extinct nautiloids mollusks, diffused in the middle ORDOVICIAN) and the AMMONITES (cephalopods diffused in the Devonian) and extinguished in the same period of the disappearance of the dinosaurs, which are characterized by shells in a spiral divided into more rooms, progressively larger. You can also find marbles with dark tonalities, tending to browns, which include crystallized fossils in opposition to their color clear with the dark background or similar marbles with green, red and orange pigments.

The choices of materials are important and fundamental in their refinement and precious with a targeted and controlled selection, from the shapes to the opulent accessories and the refined design. Everything is of course even more exalted by the size of the environment, even if it’s true that not always a confined space is synonymous with “aesthetic poverty”.
Today’s residential architecture has modified the sizes of the houses’ interiors, creating wider and more liveable spaces, in which the taste and the functional requirements must go together.
A personal and exclusive mark thanks to a special design, which creates a pleasant, rich atmosphere and of absolute prestige. Each solution is created and studied in every detail and realised with a mix of classic and modern, oriental or minimalist styles, together with elegance and perfection with naturally worked fossil marbles to exalt the historical elements present in its composition. This historicity exalted daily is always alive!
