Materials

At Vitruvius we source all our materials from only the most reputable quarries and suppliers both in the UK and abroad. We have also established an excellent working relationship with an outstanding agent in Italy, through whom we can arrange client visits to local suppliers in both Carrara and Verona.

In addition to this we work extensively with top quality suppliers in London and the Home Counties such as www.geraldculliford.co.uk

We understand that different projects require different approaches and have the requisite skills and experience to guide you through the design and build process from start to finish using materials including:

  • Marble
  • Granite
  • Slate
  • Limestone

Although we work with a range of different materials, we are perhaps best known for our provision of superb and finely worked marble. Derived from the Greek word μάρμαρον (mármaron), meaning ‘shining rock’ marble has been the favoured material of artists and builders since the Classical period because of its beauty and strength. At Vitruvius we pride ourselves on our ability to utilise these unique properties in the creation of exquisite, bespoke products.

Some of the exquisite materials we work with are:

Marquina

Sivec

Porphry

Calacatta

Belgian Black

Travertine

Aquatine

Serpentine

Porto
