Description
Stone finishes
HONED
Smoothing of the material in order to represent a smooth texture with slight reflection.
POLISHED
Polishing process of the material surface to ensure a shiny texture.
FLAMED
Exposure of the stone’s surface directly to a high temperature flame in which the end result is a fine and adherent roughness.
SAND-BLASTED
Creation of small craters, blasting silica sand against the material with an air gun, which highlight the color of the stone.
BUSH-HAMMERED
Application of an hammer called “Bujão” in the material to generate craters, randomly distributed on its surface.
SPLIT-FACED
Process of breaking the stone manually, in which the end result will be an irregular, chipped and natural texture.
SCRATCHED
This finish is applied so that the surface exhibits a texture with irregular reliefs and adherent texture.
