Verde Chassagne – green marble of natural origin

Verde Chassagne is a rare, sophisticated and expressive serpentinite-carbonate rock / serpentine marble quarried in the stone basins of France (with commercial selections associated with the famous limestone-stone district of Burgundy). Appreciated in luxury interior architecture and bespoke design for the delicate and luminous contrast between the light background and the greenish mineral textures, it represents a decorative material of high aesthetic value.

Visually, it is distinguished by an elegant background matrix in shades of light cream, ivory white and pearl grey, densely furrowed and embellished with a lattice of veins, nodules and nuanced inserts in shades of sage green, jade green, olive green and thin golden/ash veins.

Technical characteristics of Verde Chassagne

Geologically it is classified as a carbonate serpentinite / silicate-carbonate serpentine marble (metamorphic rock consisting of serpentine group minerals such as antigorite and lizardite recrystallized together with calcareous components and micro-inclusions of chlorite and epidote). Being a material with a mixed silicate-carbonate composition, it has a sensitivity to aggressive food and chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, fruit juices or anti-limescale detergents), which can cause clouding or superficial aggression on the calcareous parts if not adequately protected. It boasts a medium-high hardness (Mohs scale 4–4.5), excellent compactness and a low water absorption rate (~0.20%).

Applications in design

– premium flooring and interior coverings: a top-notch choice for state room flooring, hotel lobbies, private suites, and floor-to-ceiling vertical coverings.

– bathroom, SPA and vanity top rooms: widely used for designer bath room coverings, shower walls and vanity tops (after suitable protective water-oil-repellent sealing).

– open-spot compositions: the organic and well-distributed veined texture allows for mirrored creations of great refinement and visual impact.

– luxury furnishing elements and accessories: ideal for table tops, entrance consoles, ornamental fireplace surrounds and custom stone inlays.
