PIETRA D'AVOLA | BAMBOO FLOORS AND WALLS
Designed by Salvatori Design Centre
Ideal for both floors and walls, the elegant ridged surface of Bamboo evokes the clean and simple lines of the tree it was named after.
The fluidity of its lines brings a restful and harmonious touch to environments from bathrooms to lobby spaces, from living rooms to spa areas. Created in 2003 by Gabriele Salvatori and his father, Alfredo, Bamboo is a perennial favourite thanks to its simplicity and versatility.
DESIGNER
SALVATORI DESIGN CENTRE
Within the Salvatori Design Centre is a diverse group of talented artists and architects who are behind many of our signature products. Under the guidance of our CEO and Creative Director Gabriele Salvatori, the team are constantly engaged in developing and designing products that meet the Salvatori brand criteria of elegance, functionality and sustainability.
While many of our products are the result of wonderful collaborations with leading international names, a number of perennial favourites were devised by our in-house team.
Bamboo, for example, is the brainchild of Gabriele himself, inspired by a meal in a Japanese restaurant in New York at the turn of the Millennium as he absentmindedly studied the placemat in front of him. Lithoverde®, the world’s first recycled stone texture, is another groundbreaking product that emerged from our headquarters in Northern Tuscany, just a few miles away from the inspiring Apuan Alps, home to the revered Bianco Carrara marble.
We have long believed that natural stone is a beautiful material that requires only an innovative twist to transform it into a stunning texture, item of furniture or accessory and this is the starting point for the Salvatori Design Centre.
While stone remains our core material, over the years we have combined it with others such as metal and wood, resulting in designer accessories such as the Quadro mirror and Gravity paperweight series. Our vision of design for the home also encompasses our sense of smell, resulting in the creation of our series of fragrances.
Romboo, Chevron, Infinito and Cotone are textures that are the fruit of the Salvatori Design Centre, as are classic staples such as our Stiletto basin, Filo Flush shower range and the versatile Oyster bathtub which allows you to create a bespoke designer bathtub.

USE

GOOD TO KNOW
- We also provide honed tiles cut to the same dimensions as Bamboo so that the fluidity of the lines remains uncompromised.
- Suitable for internal and external use including wet areas. Lighting is a key component which significantly enhances the beauty of Bamboo.
- The key to great lighting is that it should “wash” down or across the surface, depending whether the lines run horizontally or vertically.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- For routine maintenance of the surfaces, always use neutral cleansers (for example, FILACLEANER or neutral soap). Do not in any case use harsh products that could irreparably damage the surface of the stone (such as acids or descaling products).
- We strongly recommend that you do not place hot objects such as kettles or pans directly onto natural stone as it may cause discolouration or staining.
- If your stone is exposed to “hard water” where there is a high mineral content, you will need to take a little extra care as the cleaning properties of the FILACLEANER or neutral detergent will be weakened. You will therefore need to use these products a little more frequently so that soap scum, lime scale and the like do not have the chance to build up and congeal.
