i Porfidi di Marazzi
Through Body Porcelain
Throw open the doors and transition this striking porcelain from interior to exterior floors and walls in either residential or commercial settings. Porphyry stone permeated with crystalline and metallic deposits inspired this dense, frost-resistant tile that is particularly well-suited for public areas such as atriums, courtyards, patios and walkways where slip resistance, strength and stain resistance are important.

Deep, rich color bands of grays, rusts, and greens recreate naturally layered ore deposits and add to its organic appeal.
