Rajastan Green is one of the most famous and widespread natural stones in the world, quarried in the large stone basins of the state of Rajasthan, India (particularly in the districts of Udaipur and Dungarpur). Recognized in interior architecture for the profound intensity of its color and its extremely high structural compactness, it constitutes a serpentine ornamental material of great charm and tradition.
Visually, it is distinguished by an intense, deep and enveloping background matrix in shades of forest green, dark emerald green and night green, furrowed by a dense and elegant lattice of thin intrinsic veins in shades of light green, white-grey and blackish micro-branches. The uniform distribution of tones gives the surfaces a solid, sober and at the same time impactful stage presence.
Geologically it is classified as a serpentinite / serpentine marble (metamorphic rock consisting mainly of serpentine group minerals such as antigorite and lizardite, with the presence of recrystallized calcite, chlorite and magnetite micro-inclusions). Unlike classic, purely carbonate limestone marbles, the serpentine matrix confers a superior density and compactness; however, the presence of calcareous micro-phases maintains a moderate sensitivity to aggressive food and chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, or anti-limescale detergents), which can cause surface opacification if left unprotected. It boasts a medium-high hardness for the marble category (Mohs scale 4–4.5), a reduced porosity and an exceptionally low water absorption rate.
– premium flooring and cladding: used for flooring in state rooms, hotel lobbies, boutiques and large vertical wall wings.
– bathroom, SPA and vanity top environments: widely used in wellness settings for vanity tops, shower tray liners and bath rooms (after appropriate protective water-oil-repellent sealing).
– bookmatch compositions: the contrasting veined lattice allows for the creation of accent walls and mirrored panels of great formal rigor.
– furnishing elements and stone inlays: an excellent choice for top tables, consoles, reception desks, fireplace surrounds and classic or modern stone inlays.
