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.

South Carolina is roughly triangular in shape. The long, even coast lined with beautiful sand beaches on the “Grand Strand” north of Georgetown becomes generally marshy to the south and is sliced by a network of rivers and creeks, creating a maze of inlets and the famous Sea Islands. The coastal climate is humid subtropical, with long, hot summers and short, mild winters. In this area are found cypress swamps, moss-hung oaks, beautiful flowering gardens, antebellum plantations, and the historic seaports of Georgetown, Beaufort, and Charleston, the latter a major tourist attraction and one of the chief ports of entry in the Southeast.
