Traditional Norwegian Granite
The Norwegian Family Member, Larvik Granite, operates six quarries in the towns of Larvik and Egersund, where some of the most exclusive natural stones in the world are extracted. From these quarries come five unique materials in shades of blue, green, gray, and brown – all quarried with passion and care, and of the highest quality.
At the heart of Larvik Granite’s range is Larvikite, Norway’s national stone. Formed by volcanic activity nearly 300 million years ago, Larvikite is renowned for its enchanting large, shimmering blue feldspar crystals. These crystals reveal themselves in different ways: the luxurious dark blue of Blue Pearl, the bright silver tones of Silver Pearl, the elegant dark green backdrop of Emerald Pearl, and the warm brown character of Blue Antique.
Raw Materials with Worldwide Appeal
Larvik Granite extracts raw blocks of the world-famous Larvikite directly from its own quarries. This magnificent stone, formed by volcanic activity around 300 million years ago, is characterized by large, sparkling feldspar crystals. Our selection includes Blue Pearl #1 LG, Blue Pearl #9, Blue Pearl #8, Silver Pearl #5, Emerald Pearl #6, Blue Antique #7, and Nordlys.
These raw blocks are cut by other Brachot Family Members into paving products, available in different finishes and styles. Our materials are used in projects worldwide, both indoors and outdoors. Whether for a classic high-end look or a sleek modern application, Larvikite’s colours add prestige and beauty across the globe.
Precision quality
The teams at Larvik Granite’s young, modern quarries have their eyes fixed firmly on the future. They believe that quality, efficiency, reliability and sustainability are all important and that’s why the company works on innovative technical optimisation schemes for their quarrying work and plants. Every block that is taken out of the quarry is carefully registered. The company then invests in detailed quality checks. Experienced staff are employed for this purpose, expanding the in-house expertise.
Blue Antique - Flamed
The temperature shock after flaming the tile leads to natural cracking on the surface.
Blue Antique - Arenado
A rough, fine-grained look and feel due to small impacts of tiny particles that are catapulted onto the surface at high speed.
Nordlys - Anzano
A somewhat rougher finish, compared to matt or polished finishes, that nonetheless has an especially pleasant feel.

People Planet Profit
Just like quality and safety, sustainable entrepreneurship is part of our daily business and forms a common thread in our operations trying to minimise the impact on the environment. Before entering new areas, comprehensive Landscape Restoration Plans are very well stipulated. An example is our Silver Pearl quarry where we are already planting trees and shrubs on the mountain of earth we create by mining. The local residents are happy too, as this blocks the view of the quarry itself. We quarry and process our materials in accordance with the strictest environmental and legislative protocols to ensure minimisation of noise and dust pollution and to ensure the protection and management of our precious water resources, for example the re-circulation of water from wire-cutting.
