The pattern of experience
Provenza confirms its ability to generate new ideas, the essential capital for sustainable, responsible growth. Originality that befriends Nature, ideas that safeguard the environment. W-age combines the heart and essence of wood with the structure of a ceramic tile, its colours, patterns and surface reflections, dialoguing with the wisdom that comes from respect and only revealing its true power when the occasion demands. W-age’s unique patterning and structure are protected by model registration, which defends the intellectual property rights to its distinguishing feature: innovation.

Experience at the service of Nature

Experience the pattern
Wood as the ancestral architectural medium, wood that provides shelter and warmth, wood that nourishes and soothes. The familiar natural principle, reaching across cultures, is re-created in a ceramic surface. W-age is cross-cut wood, the material’s very essence visible in the sawn log, heart of the tree and unique perfection. The concentric rings left by past years receive new vigour in living-spaces, in renewed emotions. Experience from the roots transformed into irresistible surfaces.

W-age: The soul of wood.
