OPUS SECTILE
Floor decorations created by small stone, marble or brick cubes laid to form a more or less complex design by color contrast, are defined as sectilia pavimenta by ancient authors.
Older sectilia pavimenta, composed of very small white, black or grey, green and red slabs of non-marble material begin to appear in the early 1st century B.C.  They are typically formed by groups of three different color rhombuses, combined to create a hexagon and generate a tridimensional effect, such as in the House of Grifi on the Palatine in Rome or in Pompei’s Temple of Apollo.
Differently from the mosaic (opus tessellatum), opus sectile uses larger marble slabs selected by color, opacity and brilliance, to create compositions of rhombuses, triangles and squares, similarly to those created with the tessellatumtechnique.

CōDICEDS jewels are the result of manual processing and finishes that give each object a unique set of characteristics. Therefore replicas of the same model may not look identical and any differences that may result are not to be considered as flaws.
