KRISTEL RED BREACH
A breccia — angular red fragments held in a pale matrix.

KRISTEL RED
A warm red ground with white fracture veining and darker burgundy pooling.
The material
Kristel Red is the most expressive material in the collection and the least forgiving of casual use. The red ground carries a fine white fracture network that reads as drawing rather than texture, with occasional burgundy concentrations that behave almost like ink. Because the pattern is directional, it rewards deliberate layout: bookmatched pairs across a wall, or a single monolithic block face. Used as a general surface it becomes noise. Used once, in the right place, it is the reason people remember a room.
