Pilarguri is a dark charcoal phyllite rock. It is also available in rust colour. Otta phyllite is unique amongst schist varieties found anywhere else in the world. Among its characteristic features are the rosettes of black amphibolite crystals and the small crystals of garnet. The mica in Otta phyllite and the play of colours give it a unique look and make it ideal for use in prestigious public and private buildings. It is ideal for use on roofs and external walls, and also as an interior stone for flooring and wall covering in rooms of all kinds.
Pilarguri has been used for many exclusive projects such as Cartier shops and Porsche showrooms all over the world, the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam, the Scandinavian Golf Club in Copenhagen, the Boston Public Library in the USA, the Jewish Museum in Berlin.
