1. What is Terrazzo :
Terrazzo is an aggregate composed of a mixture of cement and debris from marble, quartz, granite, glass or other suitable material. It is widely used in interior design and wall tiles and home products.
2. How to create Terrazzo:
After mixing the mixture of cement, sand, and rock debris, people pour it into the product mold, with a drying time of about 24 hours, then grind a thin layer of cement on the surface to create a layer of Terrazzo.
3. History of Terrazzo:
Although the history of Terrazzo can be traced back to ancient Egyptian mosaics, the first makers came from Italy. The form of Terrazzo used today derives in part from the “pavimento alla Veneziana” (Venetian pavement) and cheaper cafes. Go back more than 500 years in Italy, where marble was the main material of choice. Venetian masons will use the scraps of marble they have collected from their high-end projects, placing them side by side in a clay mortar tank to make their own residence and terrace. It is also the origin of Terrazzo. Terrazzo also involved the technique by which workers threw larger marbles into the cement. It is then ground and polished. These methods give the general appearance of Terrazzo involving pieces of rock bonded to a cement base.
Terrazzo was first introduced to the United States in the late 1890s, but was not popularized until the 1920s. One of the most famous examples of Terrazzo is the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Created in 1958, the walk honors celebrities in the form of a Terrazzo star displaying their names.
