One of the leading names in reproduction of precious marbles, granites and stones, Fabbrica Marmi e Graniti unveils a new Gemstone collection.
Part of MaxFine range of maxi-slabs, the latest launch is pushing the boundaries of high-tech porcelain surfaces.
Fabbrica Marmi e Graniti noticed a growing trend among architects that choose to use high-tech porcelain for floor and wall coverings, countertops and tables. Not only does it offer unique textures that beautifully reacts to light, it can also deliver the same effect as marble, wood, stone, resin and concrete coverings. In addition, the practical elements such resistance, inalterability, light weight and easy laying and maintenance also make it a desirable choice during the design process.
Celebrating the natural elegance and warmth of precious stones, Gemstone has a variegated texture that alternates crystallised areas characterised by visible inclusions with more homogeneous areas where thin veins delicately embellish the surface.
Easily used across kitchen countertops, sinks, tables, shelves, steps, doors, sliding doors and curved surfaces, Gemstone palette is divided into three colours, from opalescent milky white, to pink fading towards lighter peach nuances, to violet simmering with wisteria and plum tones.
Gemstone comes in a polished finish that enhances the elegant chromatic interplay and the three-dimensionality of its texture. Ideal for applying in contemporary living rooms and kitchens, as well as wellness facilities and boutiques.
