  • Larvikite was formed by a magmatic (volcanic) reaction about 300 million years ago. The magma then hardened deep in the earth’s crust under high pressure and temperature. As the magma slowly cooled, the crystals were formed became uniform and similar in size.

  • Larvikite is unique and can be found only in Norway. It is named after the city of Larvik, close to our quarries. Larvikite is also Norway's national stone.

  • The Anorthosite, was formed by a magmatic (volcanic) reaction about 1000 million years ago. The magma hardened deep in the earth’s crust under high pressure and temperature (around 1000 degrees C). It cooled down slowly, which results in uniform crystals with similar size. Anorthosite is in general often referred to as granite due to its hard surface.

  • A high gloss polished surface is the most popular finish. This surface finish reflects the light beautifully, mirroring the surroundings and making the blue crystals sparkle. A silk polished surface has an elegant matte and lightly structured finish. This provides a softer and more subtle look than the high gloss finish. Beneath the soft matte texture, crystals still catch the light and sparkle gently. Both the polished and the silk surfaces are easy to clean and require minimal maintenance.

    New surface finishes are still under development, so please contact our recommended dealers for more information and new possibilities.

  • The most common thickness is 2cm or 3cm. For other requirements please contact your nearest fabricator.
