The Name Game

In the stone industry, names can be tricky. When a quarry runs out, miners open a nearby pit and call it "New [Name]".

  • Original: Usually deeper color, better consistency. E.g., The original Kashmir White is closed.
  • New: Might be lighter or have more variation. E.g., New Viscon White often has bolder veins than the classic version.

At Ruvello, we are transparent. We tell you exactly which quarry/pit your block is from so there are no surprises.
