Series<\/p>

The Laminam series in our catalogue<\/h2>

The name points the way; you\u2019ll find the finish and thickness on each stone\u2019s card. When you book, list the stones you want to see and we\u2019ll tell you which of them are on display as full slabs at the showroom.<\/p><\/div>

I Naturali<\/h3>

The series carries the names of famous marbles and stones: Calacatta Michelangelo, Calacatta Oro Venato, Statuario Altissimo, Bianco Lasa, Emperador Extra and Nero Greco. Most of them are listed with a polished surface.<\/p><\/div>

Stone texture<\/h3>

The Pietra di Savoia Bocciardata stones have a brushed surface; in Italian the name refers to stone dressed with a bush hammer. Pietra Piasentina and Pietra di Cardoso from the In-Side series are matt and carry the names of Italian natural stones.<\/p><\/div>

Calce<\/h3>

A concrete-like brushed surface in shades from white Bianco and ivory Avorio to grey Grigio, dark grey Antracite and black Nero. It suits a minimalist kitchen where the worktop doesn\u2019t need to demand attention with a pattern.<\/p><\/div>

Solid colour<\/h3>

Collection Bianco Assoluto is a polished white and Nero Assoluto a matt black, both without pattern. They suit a kitchen whose look comes from the fronts and the light, not from the stone.<\/p><\/div>

Ossido<\/h3>

Ossido Bruno, Ossido Nero and Ossido Verderame are matt, dark stones in brown, black and green. A good choice when the kitchen needs a deep tone without shine.<\/p><\/div>

Polished statement stones<\/h3>

Cristallo Gold, Diamond Calacatta Black, FluidoSolido Blu and Verde Alpi are glossy stones for an island or bar top that is meant to stand out in the room.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

Surface and edge<\/p>

Book Match, finish and thickness<\/h2><\/div>

Book Match on an island<\/h3>

The Book Match version is a pair of slabs whose veins are mirror images of each other. Joined together, they create a symmetrical figure in the middle that suits the end of a kitchen island, the centre of the wall behind the hob or a bathroom wall. On the drawing we fix where the axis of symmetry falls.<\/p><\/div>

Polished, matt or brushed<\/h3>

Polished Laminam reflects light and deepens the veining, a matt surface is calm and hides water drops, and a brushed surface has a light texture you can feel with your fingertips. The catalogue has all three.<\/p><\/div>

12 or 20 mm<\/h3>

All our Laminam stones are available 12 mm thick, and many in 20 mm as well. The thinner slab suits a light kitchen and walls; the thicker one gives a worktop weight even without an edge joint.<\/p><\/div>

Edge and corner<\/h3>

The body of the slab often shows in the cut edge and can differ from the surface, so we go through the edge profile together with the stone. A slight chamfer protects the edge; a mitred corner joint carries the veining over the corner.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>
