Azar is a very unique natural stone exclusive to Iran. the amazing orange/pinkish color coupled with the grey veins of this marble create a scene that is hard to believe is completely extracted from the heart of the earth. this marble comes in a wide variety of patterns and gives a completely different scene when it’s vein-cut or Cross-cut.
Azar marble is extremely durable and similar to Granite in hardness, which is an obvious advantage, but the other side of hardness is the difficulty in cutting, the erosion of the gangsaw blades, and less than perfect polishing quality. but the list of the amazing qualities of this marble does not end here. the crystalline nature of Azar marble cause translucency and when exposed to light appear to be set ablaze.
