Labrascar is a refined, solid and elegant natural blue-green granite/labradorite mined in Madagascar’s famous stone basins. Appreciated in contemporary high-end architecture and designer interior design for the sober elegance of its homogeneous matrix and the vibrant luminosity of its feldspathic reflections, it represents an ornamental stone of notable aesthetic value and extremely high structural stability.
Visually, it is distinguished by a compact and homogeneous background matrix in shades of blue-green, anthracite grey and petroleum shades, capillarily enriched by fine and iridescent crystals in shades of sapphire blue, air blue, silver and blue-electric reflections. Under direct light, the crystals capture brightness by generating a delicate and fascinating three-dimensional labradorescence effect on a dark, enveloping base.
Geologically it is an intrusive magmatic rock (granite / anorthosite rich in feldspars) with a predominantly silicate composition. 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 total frostiness and an extremely low liquid absorption rate. To best preserve the surface from oils and pigment stains, regular protective hydro-oleorepellent sealing is recommended.
– 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.
– high-traffic flooring and cladding: ideal for interior and exterior flooring, state lobbies, business centers, and ventilated facades, ensuring unalterability and durability over time.
– designer bathroom and vanity top rooms: widely used for refined vanity tops, shower trays and wall coverings, providing an elegant, clean and relaxing atmosphere.
– furnishing elements and civil architecture: perfect for the creation of reception desks, dining tables, consoles, stairways and high-quality borders in residential and commercial contexts.
