There are three types of porcelain tile typically used: Carraba white, Rosa portagallo and Bottocino
These porcelain tiles are obtained by particular clays and high temperatures. The final results are tiles so beautiful as to rival natural marble tiles. Like quarry marble, they can be worked, honed and polished, because they are homogeneous throughout the thickness.
These artificial marbles have advantages over natural marbles such as no maintenance, easy installation, lower cost and same durability. They are available in many sizes and colors and in two finishes: mat, or satin surface and honed and polished, high glossy surface.

The Great Lakes Plain meets the Appalachian Plateau in the extreme northwestern part of the state. The Appalachian Plateau stretches across the western and northern sections of Pennsylvania and covers more than half the area of the state. The Allegheny Mts. line the eastern edge of the plateau and run southwest to northeast, overlooking the Great Appalachian Valley. The Jacks, Tuscarora, and Blue Mts. comprise a ridge and valley section bordered by the Great Appalachian Valley to the southeast and east. The Piedmont Plateau gives way to the Atlantic Coastal Plain in the extreme southeastern portion of the state.
