The Pietra Piasentina comes in nature as shapeless blocks, characterised by an outer shell that covers the core of the material. White veins and red marbling hence remain unknown until the opening of the block (up to the first cut) that reveals its beauty and goodness. Each Piasentina block is different from the other and the yield is unpredictable, only skilled workers manage to get the best out of each block.
CUDICIO has 2 authorised quarries for Pietra Piasentina extraction, working in environmental respect, taking from the earth only what is necessary for production, thus preserving the landscape.
