FAQ's

What is Terrazzo?

Terrazzo is a combination of marble, granite, glass, or quartz chips set into cement.

What is the history of Terrazzo?

Terrazzo comes from the word “terra,” which is Latin for ground. The antiquity-inspired material can be traced back to Egyptian mosaics and became most popular in 16th-century Italy to make use of stone offcuts. It can be either poured by hand or precast into blocks and cut to size. Giving an artisanal feel to home interiors it's become a favourite for most.
