Pietra Firma’s limited edition flooring is true luxury with an uncompromising attention to detail, setting the standard in interior luxury floor, wall and ceiling design.

Made in collaboration with John Harwood Design, the LuxTouch tile from Pietra Firma is a combination of traditional skills, innovative designs and the indulgent use of rare and precious materials, namely diamonds, mother-of-pearl and abalone.

Each marble tile is lavishly embossed with 19 brilliant-cut diamonds that surround a pitch-black agate circle with a mother-of-pearl flower petal pattern that radiates out from the centre. Each petal and the black agate pieces amid the petals are further encrusted with more diamonds, bringing the grand total of 95 precious stones per tile.

The four corners are finished with inlaid mother-of-pearl and abalone shell for a complete tactile and visual effect.

There are in total five intricate designs in this exclusive Pietra Tile Collection, which will be launched over the course of 12 months at the fetching price of $1,000,000 per square meter.
