Our specially developed QUARRYCAST™ material is made from a unique blend of Volcanic Limestone™ and high-performance resins.
An unrivalled stone composite.
Volcanic Limestone™ is Victoria + Albert’s name for the very special white rock that is perfect for making baths and basins.
It is formed when the elemental forces associated with liquid magma act upon surrounding soft, chalky limestone. The immense heat and pressure from the magma transforms the neighbouring rock into a new material made up of incredibly hard strands.
We blend milled Volcanic Limestone™ rock with high quality resins to bind these strands into a complex 3D matrix. The finished result is QUARRYCAST™ - a world class stone composite that delivers unrivalled strength, durability and beauty.
Feel different. Introducing 100% matt.
Victoria + Albert’s new Standard Matt finish is different. Made in the cast, not by coatings or glaze, it is ‘100%’ Matt. The surface absorbs and diffuses light, for a calming ambience. It has a velvety feel, gentle against the skin. Crafted from the same Volcanic Limestone™ material as our signature QUARRYCAST™ White gloss finish, the new Standard Matt option is naturally warm and retains the heat of the water. Encouraging you to relax for longer. To feel different.
Our Standard Matt finish is available as a no-cost option across our best-selling baths and basins.
Over 200 RAL colours to choose from
Victoria + Albert’s colour service allows you to personalise the exterior of any our freestanding baths and basins from a spectrum of over 200 colours, in either a gloss or matt finish. We use the RAL colour system, which offers easy colour matching.
Victoria + Albert’s colour finish is multi-layered for exceptional depth and lustre. A special catalysed paint is applied, and the surface is hand-polished between applications. This technique results in a beautiful and durable finish.
