Lipica Fiorito – known already by Romans

The characteristic floral structure is given to the stone by rudists - marine fossils typical of shallow seas that covered the Karst during the Cretaceous period.

The beauty of the characteristic floral appearance is given to the stone by sections of fossils, which are especially well preserved here. The different gray shades of the stone enable different combinations, both within the Lipica Fiorito stone itself, as well as with other types of natural stones and materials.

It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
