Where Is Francini Stone Sourced?

Francini stone has undoubtedly taken the world by surprise due to its versatility and uses. Many homeowners have embraced the use of Francini stone for vanities, countertops, bathtubs, floors, showers, and fireplaces. However, where is Francini stone sourced?

These beautiful, dependable, and timeless natural stones come from quarries around the world. Quarries are locations that are rich with rocks, minerals, and sand. The top three countries Francini imports natural stones from are Italy, India, and Brazil.

Francini's Top Quarry Locations for Natural Stone

Initially, the world's leading producer of natural stones was Italy. It has always been a genuine industry with marble quarries located in the Travertines, Carrara, Serpegiantes, and Botticinos. The high-yield polishing and stone cutting machines ensure you get top-quality stones that are durable and elegant.

India produces top-quality soapstone in different quarry locations all over the country. However, Rajasthan is the central hub for soapstone mining in India. Over the past years, India has invested in buying machinery to ensure you get a high-quality natural stone. Note that soapstone is a natural stone countertop with an elegant and unique look.

Brazil, on the other hand, produces incredible quartzites. Some of our favorites include Ijen Blue, Blue Prime, and Calacatta Fendi. Each quartzite has unique patterns. In addition to its aesthetic beauty, quartzite is exceptionally durable, stain-proof, heat, and fire-resistant, making it ideal for kitchen countertop surfaces. You can expect its coloring to remain as beautiful as the day it was installed. You can also create beautiful tile floors that look elegant in various tile and slab sizes.
