PBICCI_image_0
  • Description:Beige compact limestone ("travertine") with "cloud-shaped" structure due to typical pore structure. The surface contains small openings that may or may not be filled (pores are usually filled when placed with adapted grout). Fossils can be present throughout the material.
    Origin:Italy
    Material category:Travertine

    Finishes

    2/2 selected
    Sawn: Pure, untreated finish for the slab or tile the way it looks after the natural stone block has been sawn. The type of saw determines whether parallel grooves or circular marks can be seen. Mainly used for outdoor applications.
    Sensato: A mechanical treatment gives the natural stone a soft texture that feels pleasant.

    Pietra Bicci: Italian Compact Travertine

    Pietra Bicci is a beige compact travertine quarried in Italy, characterised by a subtle cloud-like structure formed by the natural decomposition of small twigs and leaves within the stone. Its fine pore pattern and warm, earthy tones make it equally at home in classic and contemporary interiors, and it comes into its own in Mediterranean architecture. This is a high-end natural stone that appeals to architects and specifiers looking for quiet refinement without compromise.

    Brachot sources Pietra Bicci directly as blocks, sawing custom thicknesses in-house to meet project requirements. The stone is available in a sensato finish, a mechanically treated surface with a soft texture and pleasant feel, as well as sawn. All dimensions and thicknesses are made to measure. Pietra Bicci sits firmly in the higher end of our natural stone range, and its finish quality and material consistency reflect that.

    Pietra Bicci is one of our most sought-after materials and stock moves fast. If you have a project in mind, we strongly recommend getting in touch early. Production at the quarry cannot keep pace with demand, and availability is not guaranteed. Plan ahead to secure your supply.
