Grassi Pietre is the great Italian Vicenza stone trademark. Three Vicenza stone types — Giallo Dorato (Golden Yellow), Bianco Avorio (Ivory White) and Grigio Argento (Silver Grey) — are extracted in the company's own quarries.
These stone types were already used by the Romans in ancient times and became world-famous in the 16th century, thanks to Andrea Palladio's extraordinary Venetian villas.
Grassi Pietre carries on the Vicenza stone tradition at the worldwide level, both preserving the original value of this activity and guaranteeing advanced technological solutions and high quality standards.
The main stone-processing phases take place in the company's 40 000 m2 wide works in Nanto, which rely both on highly skilled staff and on modern equipment. Grassi Pietre offers a wide choice of natural stone and marble types, for the best custom-designed solutions.
The Grassi family has been active in the stone quarrying sector since the 19th century, when Pietro Grassi set up the first quarry on the Nanto hills and started producing fine stone for sculptors and nearby building sites.
Thanks to its refined aesthetic qualities and its warm, neutral colors, stone is particularly suitable both for classic and modern contexts. The typical characteristic of Vicenza stone is the fact that it tends to grow hard with time, because of its calcareous structure. It therefore resists to low temperatures and unfavorable weather conditions.
