Beneath The Surface

Entering Lapicida’s expansive three-acre Knaresborough HQ (below centre) can only be likened to walking into a cathedral of stone. You almost find yourself instinctively lowering your voice to a whisper. What greets you is largest, most impressive gallery dedicated exclusively to stone and tile surfaces.

Visit Lapicida’s Breathtaking North Yorkshire Showroom

The effect, like the choice on display, is utterly overwhelming. Entire collections of the highest quality marble, limestone, travertine, slate and even semi-precious stone are presented at their absolute best, alongside beautiful new-generation porcelains and ceramics. Nowhere else can you encounter such a diverse collection, especially with prices ranging from the surprisingly affordable to the rare and understandably costly.

At the height of luxury, Lapicida’s antique reclaimed natural stone floors, such as Genuine Antique Blonde Barr Limestone (above left) and intricate custom cut bespoke floors are shown alongside solid natural stone baths, basins and shower trays. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Behind the scenes are the workshops where Lapicida’s highly skilled and experienced craftsmen use both traditional stonemasonry skills and advanced technologies to create virtually anything, working with architects, interior designers and private clients from every corner of the over the globe.

World-Famous Choice, Quality & Consistency

Lapicida is also internationally renowned for the range and quality of its natural marbles, not only the famous Italian marbles, but also those from less high-profile European quarries. Lapicida has spent over thirty years building relationships with pioneering family-run businesses, ensuring consistent quality at sensible prices.

Designed to work on their own, or in conjunction with natural materials, Lapicida’s remarkable collections of ceramic and porcelain floor and wall tiles come in astonishingly realistic facsimiles of marble, stone, wood, concrete and metal, as well as beautiful decorative patterns. Bluetta Bookmatch (above right) and Montpellier Taupe porcelains are prime examples that are lighter in weight than natural stones, and offer practical alternatives in many locations, as well as meeting tighter budgets.
