Larvikite – 300 million years old

Sourced from the quarries of Norway and crafted by nature 300 million years ago, Larvikite is one of the world’s most exquisite and unique natural stones. Found in the Norwegian mountains of Larvik (the home of Lundhs Real Stone and the only place where the Larvikite can be found), Larvikite is the ideal material for worktops and remains in its complete natural state from quarry to kitchen. Distributed to countries all over the world, each Lundhs Real Stone is delivered to its final customer with a certificate of authenticity, leaving them with their own unique and untouched piece of 100% real stone from Norway.

The product of minerals melting and mixing under extreme heat millions of years ago, Larvikite is a high density and non-porous surface. Durable, distinctive and completely natural, Larvikite kitchen worktops boast high heat, water, scratch, UV and stain resistance as well as minimal maintenance.
