BOTTICINO
Botticino is a compact, f ine-grained semi-
crystalline limestone extracted in the
province of Brescia, Italy. It has a cream-
pink background colour with subtle veining
and fossil inclusions. Due to its undeniable
beauty and high resistance, Botticino is
widely used in interior design for f looring,
cladding, thresholds, and window sills. Its
compactness and low absorption rates also
make it suitable for external use.
