About Vitra

Vitra is a geologically dramatic and visually stunning natural quartzite quarried in Bahia, Brazil. Its character is defined by a powerful color palette, featuring a dominant dark grey to graphite background that serves as a canvas for striking "Red Lava" and oxide red vein-like patterns. These bold movements are sharply accented by crisp white linear veins and softened by patches of ash-grey. Known for its artistic soul, Vitra offers extreme hardness and exceptionally low water absorption (0.13%), providing superior stain resistance. Interestingly, its unique crystalline structure often exhibits a subtle translucency, making it a spectacular choice for creative backlit installations.
