Good to know

Where does the name Fior di Pesco come from?

The name means 'peach blossom' in Italian, a reference to the delicate grey-violet tones of the stone reminiscent of spring blossoms. It is quarried in the Carnia region of Friuli, northeastern Italy.

Is Fior di Pesco still actively quarried?

Yes, though in limited quantities. It is considered a premium niche marble rather than a high-volume commodity. Availability should be confirmed per project; slab sizes may be smaller than typical large-format marbles.
