Needless to say, exactly for its characteristics, <strong>porphyry tiles <\/strong>are used for both interior and exterior areas. <strong>Natural cleft surface porphyry tiles<\/strong> are not worked on the surface, they are only worked on their edges by <strong>splitting<\/strong> and <strong>sawing<\/strong> \u2013 their natural stratification does not allow to get a uniform thickness, which is therefore variable:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Split edges porphyry<\/strong> is produced by compression-splitting of irregular slabs using hydraulic presses fitted with blades suited to rough, unifinished stone. As a result, the tiles are rectangular, their sides are split, and they have slightly chamfered edges.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sawn edges porphyry<\/strong> is produced by cutting of irregular slabs with natural cleft surface using diamond blade saws \u2013 what is more, they may also be semi-polished, especially when used for interior areas. Their edges are perpendicular to the face and they are cut at a 90\u00b0 angle; their length can be either random or fixed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Setting patterns for porphyry tiles<\/strong> can be summarised into the following main classes:<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243;
