Old Quarried Stone |
Addtime:2009-1-15 |
Italian stone and tile manufacturer GranitiFiandre
has expanded its NewStone product line with the addition of the Belgian
Blue Collection. Inspired by its centuries-old, quarried namesake, the
Belgian Blue Collection boasts light-colored veining criss-crossing its
surface reminiscent of classic marks left by coral and shell fossils.
GranitiFiandre
artisans have recreated the aesthetic beauty of quarried Belgian Blue
Stone?apopular for over 300 years in Europe for construction and
ornamental uses?ain a technically superior porcelain product that offers
conformity in sizing, ease of maintenance, and guaranteed
frost-resistance and 100% UV stability suitable for interior and
exterior applications.
?<The beauty of our Belgian Blue
Collection is very similar to its quarried counterpart; however, our
finishes, including polished, honed and bush-hammered are technically
superior resulting in a product that never requires waxing or special
maintenance procedures,?\ said Jeanne Nichols, vice president?asales and
marketing for GranitiFiandre in the United States. ?<It is perfect for
sleek, modern spaces defined by high quality and durability.?\
The
Belgian Blue Collection encompasses the following hues: Belgian Camel,
Belgian Amber, Belgian Green, Belgian Grey and Belgian Black. Sizing
availability includes 24''x 24'', 24''x 12'', 18''x 18'' and 9''X 9''
formats, along with special pieces and trims, in polished, honed, and
bushhammered finishes. NewStone products are geologic stones that if
quarried would be classified as bluestone, slate, sandstone, volcanic
or quartz-based stones. These recreations of nature?.s stones are made
of 100% natural materials with advanced technological controls that
eliminate unacceptable shading and structural variations inherent in
quarried stones.
