STONE –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– individual pattern that consists of an almost shattered, dramatic look, with delicate lines of dark grey con- trasting against the light. Bronze Amani – This valuable and elegant natural stone comes from Spain, bringing warm and welcoming tones,which recall hints of bronze, and treating observers to three-dimensional characteristics that are formed from interlacing of various shades of color. Explosion Blue – This natural stone resembles a wave that cre- atively embraces the nocturnal sea- dark tones, slightly reflecting the gold threads of the moon. Crystal Quartz – Crystal Quartz preserves the intact beauty of spiri- tuality. Able to capture the natural light and to produce extraordinary effects, this material has been con- sidered in ancient times a god’s gift and so is today, as its healing prop- erties are still effective. This natural stone has a magic allure that can be used as a perfect tool by the most visionary designers in search of a new harmony, conceptually as well as materially conceived.
