Sandstone Sunstone
Medium-grained sandstone, with pinkish and yellowish tones that convey a sense of homogeneity and chromatic balance. It is a stone especially appreciated in restoration projects, as it manages to blend seamlessly with original period surfaces, recovering the aesthetics and authenticity of ancient architectural elements. Its texture, color, and durability make it an ideal material for heritage interventions, providing visual continuity and respecting the historical identity of each work.
