Blue King is an exceptional, rare and spectacular natural blue granite quarried in the rich and ancient stone basins of the African continent (with particular reference to the renowned mining areas of Angola and sub-Saharan Africa). Celebrated in contemporary high-end interior architecture and designer design for its extraordinary chromatic intensity and profound expressive power, it represents a stone material of inestimable decorative value and of the highest structural profile.
Visually, it is distinguished by a deep and enveloping background matrix in shades of cobalt blue, sapphire blue, indigo and air blue, capillarily traversed and embellished by a vibrant interweaving of fluid veins, flaming and luxurious crystals in shades of pearl grey, ivory white, obsidian black and soft purple reflections.
Geologically it is an intrusive magmatic rock (granite) with a predominantly silicate composition (quartz, 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 thermal shock, combined with an extremely low liquid absorption rate.
– luxury kitchen tops and countertops: an excellent choice for kitchen tops, scenic islands, and bar counters thanks to their total immunity to food acids, nicks, and direct heat.
– bookmatch compositions: the fluidity and intensity of the veined design lend themselves magnificently to mirrored posing for the creation of accent walls with a strong scenographic impact in salons, lobbies and reception areas.
– signature bathroom and vanity top rooms: widely used for refined vanity tops, shower trays and wall or bathtub coverings, giving a regal, enveloping and exclusive atmosphere.
– prestigious vertical flooring and cladding: ideal for interior flooring, state lobbies, ventilated facades, and wall cladding in elite residential and commercial settings.
