Pietra Grey – Very Popular Pietra Grey

TFO offers a great range of Pietra Grey! These range from natural stones to porcelain tiles in a variety of looks, including stone looks.

One unique stone is Pietra Grey. Pietra Grey is a limestone which is made mostly of a mineral form of calcium carbonate called calcite. It is formed when the calcium carbonate crystallizes over many thousands of years. It’s formed at the bottom of oceans or lakes from the accumulation of shells, bones and other calcium rich goods. When the limestone is subjected to intense heat or pressure, then crystallization occurs and the limestone becomes a true marble.

Chemically they are both still calcium carbonate but the marble has a crystalline appearance and the limestone will have a relatively flat appearance. Marble is used for flooring, wall cladding, vanity tops, furniture and ornate stonework. It is also used extensively for building construction purposes.

When limestone becomes marble, one of the most beautiful stones available is Peitra Grey, which is a warm deep grey colour with light white veining.

Limestone and marble being natural products, are the stones of choice for elegant projects. However, they are traditionally expensive for the average consumer. But now at TFO, you can get the elegant look of Pietra Grey in a porcelain tile. You can create a sophisticated, timeless look for a fraction of the price of the real thing.
