{"product_id":"prezio-stone-patagonia-quartzite-slab","title":"Prezio Stone Patagonia Quartzite Slab Program","description":"\u003cp\u003ePatagonia looks less like a stone and more like a geological event: a cream field of coarse feldspar crystals shot through with black biotite webs and amber mineral pockets. Every slab is a one off composition, which is why designers treat it as functional art for islands, bars, and backlit feature walls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSlabs run approx 105 x 65 in from sequential bundles.
