Blue Eyes is one of the rarest, most fascinating and exclusive blue granites in the world, mined mainly in the famous and rigid stone basins of Canada (in the province of Quebec). Appreciated in contemporary high-end architecture and designer interior design for the extraordinary iridescence of its feldspar crystals, it represents a stone material of inestimable decorative value, extreme stability and exceptional mechanical resistance.
Visually, it is distinguished by a refined and compact background matrix in shades of pearl grey, ash grey and pinkish beige, capillarily studded with spectacular and hypnotic anorthosite crystals in shades of iridescent cobalt blue, sapphire blue and electric purple.
Geologically it is an intrusive magmatic rock (anorthosite / granite) with a predominantly silicate composition (plagioclase, feldspars and micas). As a strictly silicate matrix material with no carbonate components, it does not react to food or household acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, juices or common detergents) and is not subject to acid attack opacification. It has a very high hardness (Mohs scale 6–7), exceptional resistance to abrasion, scratches, intense trampling and the most extreme temperature variations (total incoherence), combined with an extremely low liquid absorption rate.
– luxury kitchen tops and countertops: a top-notch choice for kitchen tops, scenic islands, and bar counters thanks to total immunity to food acids, nicks, and direct heat.
– designer flooring and cladding: ideal for interior and exterior flooring, state lobbies, ventilated facades, and prestigious staircases, where the blue reflections of the crystals create a unique scenographic effect.
– bathroom and vanity top rooms: widely used for refined vanity tops, shower trays and accent walls, offering a bright, relaxing and at the same time impactful aesthetic.
– custom furnishings and architecture: perfect for making tops for dining tables, consoles, reception desks, plinths, and exclusive decorative details in elite residential and commercial settings.
