Labradorite Blue | Lapidura GT

Product Details and Areas of Use

Its body consists of a mysterious combination of night blue, dark emerald green, and anthracite tones reminiscent of ocean depths. On its surface, the characteristic “iridescent” (color-changing depending on the angle of light) optical reflections of labradorite, one of nature’s rarest semi-precious stones, are depicted as bright blue and golden yellow crystal islets. Its super glossy (polished) surface enhances the depth of these crystal refractions, adding an exotic, mystical, and undeniably luxurious touch to spaces. The giant slab size of 120×280 cm minimizes grout lines in wall and floor applications, offering a seamless semi-precious stone appearance.

It is produced with a thickness of 6 millimeters. Structural weakness, extreme sensitivity to acids, exorbitant costs, and the necessity of regular polish maintenance, which are frequently encountered in real labradorite and similar natural crystallized stones, have been completely eliminated thanks to Geotiles’ superior sintered porcelain technology. With its low square meter weight, it can be safely applied in ambitious architectural projects, luxury restaurant or bar back walls, VIP bathroom areas, and special furniture surfaces without imposing static load on the system.

Application Options

• Interior Walls and Panels: Thanks to its 120×280 cm size, it creates a seamless, colossal work of art effect on TV-back focus walls, in hotel lobbies, around fireplaces, and in club/restaurant designs. When combined with lighting, the blue crystal veins become the main star of the space.
• Furniture Surfaces: With its lightweight 6mm structure, it can be directly adhered to island countertop side panels, luxury bathroom cabinet doors, and architecturally designed dining or meeting tables. It does not add weight to supporting structures.
• Facade and Flooring: It is fully resistant to frost, sudden temperature changes, and direct sunlight (UV) rays. No discoloration or loss of brightness occurs in the blue and gold crystal reflections due to external factors.

Advantages of Porcelain Material

• Liquid Repellency: The surface pores are completely closed; alcohol, coffee, oil, and acidic liquids (lemon, vinegar, etc.) do not penetrate the surface. It does not require annual impregnation like natural stones.
• Heat Resistance: Since it is shaped at very high temperatures in industrial kilns, it does not expand or crack on the surface when exposed to direct heat, pot contact, or thermal shocks.
• Easy Cleaning: Its glassy and smooth surface does not harbor dirt. It is easily cleaned without leaving marks using standard neutral surface cleaners and a microfiber cloth.
