Italian Porphyry types…
There are two main types of Italian Porphyry stone :
– Dimension stone cut by saw from the quarry in large blocks, which are then finished in a factory into sawn slabs, tiles, kitchen worktop etc.
– Split stone where the stone is split and guillotined entirely within the quarry, mostly for exterior landscape applications.
