A Brief History
Terrazzo may have been another of mankind's accidental discoveries. In the 15th century, mosaic artisans in Northen Italy swept waste marble chips out onto their terraces, "terrazzi" and by walking on them, smoothed the surfaces.
When workers learned to press the chips into a more permanent clay base, then grind and polish them with heavy stones, terrazzo was born. Michelangelo used it in St. Peter's Basilica and George Washington in his cherished Mount Vernon.
