The Genuine Aged Effect Marble Mosaic

This new pattern on unique surface finishing is obtained through new technology that is an evolution of invention by Giovanni Barbieri since 1999.

The procedure first wears out the borders of the tiles then creates semi-opaque natural wavy surface;
the procedure which “consumes” the softer parts of the marble composition and also allows the subsequent polishing applied in the same grade of an original historical floor.
The whole procedure is done with ecological abrasive only.
The degree of surface sheen is the same as the original sheen on the floors of the historical buildings in our italian cities.

No matter the amount of usage and traffic that that the marble is subjected to, its sheen and its unique reflections remain unaltered.

For care, maintenance, easy of usage and aesthetical result, we consider this type of surface to be the very best in the antiqued natural stone tile market as it is extremely similar than the original one.

Oil water repellent protection is suggested in reference of the destination use.

On April 2021, we introduce an evolution version of this utterly unique collection: the New Timeworn Mosaic having less structured textures than before and much more harmoniously consumption high honed surface finishing, now finally suitable and comfortable for floor use in 6 new patterns also, giving a much more sophisticate and genuine look.
