Haegghult, Ebony Black ,Swedish Standard Black Granite Block

In the region of Skåne, outside the village of Lönsboda, there are three quarries: Hägghult, Duvhult and Gylsboda.
In Duvhult you will find one of the most unique Diabas quarries in the world.
Because of its fine grain, intensely dark colour and structure, this stone has a unique tone and lustre.
Our diabase is used primarily as memorial stones, but also in other forms of stone ornaments. It is also used when making measuring plates, since the expansion coefficient is very low.
Here, we produce about 400 cubic meters per year.
