verde alpi
Alpine green: dark serpentine, held in a net of pale veins.
Verde Alpi is quarried in the Aosta Valley, in the Italian Alps. It is a serpentine marble: angular green fragments bound together by veins of white and pale-green calcite. Dark, dense and full of movement, it has long been used for columns, floors and inlay.

Bush-hammeredOpen the block like a book.
Slabs sawn one after another from the same block carry the same vein. How they are laid decides the drawing on the wall.
Slabs side by side, all facing the same way. The vein repeats, like a pattern.
Every other slab is turned over, like a page. The vein mirrors itself across the seam.
Four slabs mirrored around one point. The vein closes into a single figure.
