{"product_id":"prezio-stone-azul-bahia-granite-slab","title":"Prezio Stone Azul Bahia Granite Slab Program","description":"\u003cp\u003eAzul Bahia is the most famous blue stone on earth, a Brazilian sodalite syenite whose royal blue reads almost electric under polish. Cream and gold mineral webbing moves through the field like current, and no two bundles repeat. It is the definitive statement surface for bars, islands, and jewel box powder rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSlabs run approx 105 x 65 in from sequential bundles. Traded as granite, the sodalite matrix takes a glassy polish that carries the color; honed and leathered faces shift it toward stormy slate blue. Supply is genuinely limited, so allocations are confirmed early and approved on current lot photography during quote review.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe iconic royal blue sodalite granite from Bahia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectric color under polish, unrepeatable bundle to bundle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolished, honed, or leathered finish, selected at quote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 cm and 3 cm gauged thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited allocation;
