Pietra D'Avola Bamboo | Sample

A rich chocolatey limestone, Pietra d’Avola is a dark, elegant stone that can vary in shade from greyish-brown to almost black. Its intense shade makes it ideal for a wide range of uses, from large-scale interior projects to small accessories.
Among Pietra d’Avola’s most distinctive characteristics are the whitish lines and splashes of colour which arise as a result of the quartz contained in the stone. Occasional yellowish marks may also be found.
A hardwearing stone, it is suitable for both interior and exterior usage, along with areas where it may be subjected to high foot traffic.
This sample combines Pietra d’Avola with our
Bamboo texture.
Created in 2003 by Gabriele Salvatori and his father, Alfredo, Bamboo is a perennial favourite thanks to its simplicity and versatility.
Ideal for both interior and exterior use, the elegant ridged surface of Bamboo recalls the clean and simple lines of the tree it was named after. The fluidity of its lines brings a restful, almost mesmerising sensation to any environment, evoking the sense of calm and harmony synonymous with the Far East.
Lighting is a key component which significantly enhances the beauty of this texture. The key to great lighting is that it should “wash” down or across the surface, depending whether the lines run horizontally or vertically.
