History and origin
It is a commercial granite available on the international market among imported green granites. The name is a trade name, and precise characteristics such as tone and grain depend on the batch available. For this material it is particularly useful to assess samples or photos of the slabs. Marmi di Carrara supplies it on request.
Look and veining
The background is green, with darker and lighter crystals enlivening the surface. The tone and distribution of the crystals can vary between batches and between slabs. Polishing intensifies the green and makes it deeper; matt finishes lighten it.
