When we were invited to show at the Docklands-based Grand Designs Live, we made the decision that we would demonstrate just what was available at the ultimate boundaries of rare and exclusive stone, where the borders between art and construction blur.

The most striking of the pieces displayed will be installed into just a handful of highly prestigious buildings around the world.

stunning centrepieces
Our opening statement; two stunning vertical book-matched panels, both 2.7m square and extended by further matched floor panels. Above is Connemara Green marble, while left is Onyx Arco Iris; both are flanked by rare specimen panels.

The reception desk shown left is formed from Onyx Bianco - though its panels are nearly an inch thick, onyx's fabled translucence allows it to be used as a highly atmospheric lighting feature.

the semi-precious collection
Fascinatingly opulent; Nature at its most outrageous best.

some lesser-known exotica
Lesser-known - but no less desirable! Alabaster, travertine, serpentine, sandstone. Plus some dramatic marbles new to our range.
