Varied terracotta, shades for every space

Variegated cotto has a complex, sophisticated history. From the 16^th century to the 18^th, it was one of the preferred materials for the floors of churches and historic mansions in the Po Valley area. The particular marbled surface is based on skilled craftsmanship: clays of different types are mixed, first individually and then together, to create a layered visual effect of constant variation. During the firing the various clays take on greater chromatic intensity, generating a vivid marbled effect that resembles certain ornamental stones.
