Travertino Rosso is a splendid natural stone, whose color can vary in intensity from deep red to pale red, depending on the quarry of origin and also the block. The veins can also vary in colour, from light cream to milk white, while the colour shades that characterise Travertino Rosso can have a more intense red intensity than the background colour. This special stone is able to give personality and originality to structural works, classic and modern coverings, but also decorative objects and furnishing elements.

The heron has always been considered differently based on the times and various cultures. Symbol of wisdom both in the East and in the West, the Greeks considered it sacred to Athena, goddess of wisdom, arts and sciences. Pliny the Elder claimed that he was an auspicious messenger. In the Middle Ages it was indicated as a symbol of penance, due to its coloring and its solitary habits. Shamans refer to him as an animal of power. The “heron” people are independent and inclined to change. They are not predisposed to lasting relationships and are unconventional.
