In 2014, during one of his adventures in search of new stones in the northeast, João Thomazini came across a small sample a of a peculiar stone with intense green and off white colors. Analyzing that little rock, Thomazini already knew in his heart that this was a great discovery .
João Thomazini fell in love with that small fragment, with great enthusiasm he decided to research and analyze it more.With its color variations from green to white and gold its impeccable quality, that pebble gained space in the heart of the Thomazini group.
With hard work and focus a new “star” was unearthed, this star is our new POLARIS.
This discovery came to be the direction and the difference in the market, intriguing our partners with its beauty and durability.

Non-acidic treatment on the stone, non-absorption problems.
Located in the quartzite deposits of Bahia State mountain range, Polaris is the new addition to our Stone Collection! Own quarry and exclusive!
Non Acid-treatment: Due to the structure of the mountain, this material won’t need massive acid tratament. It means there are no surprises: material turning yellow or dropping salt
Non absorption issues: Most of the quartzites (meta-sandstone) quarried in the Satet of Minas Gerais (Diamantina) have a high absorption rate, wich means that even the humidity in the air may turn the slabs spotty or wet. It won’t happen with Polaris.
Mirror shine and flawless polishing, no chipping during fabrication, zero after installation oxidation or absorption issues.
