Already used by the ancient Egyptians, Diorite is an intermediate intrusive rock with characteristics similar to those of granite. Its numerous properties and unsurpassed value for money make it one of the most widely used stones in construction.
The varied grey melange colour that characterises it is much appreciated by architects and designers as it fits in perfectly with both classic and modern styles.
Features
The granite composition gives hardness and resistance to wear and tearfrom weathering and the passage of time.
Use
Diorite Chiara is widely used today in modern funerary art and in the construction of new buildings as it is ideal for the realisation of all those architectural elements located outdoors (thresholds for doors, window sills, stairs, wall coverings) that are inevitably subjected to strong thermal variations and harsh climatic conditions.
