terrazzo floor

Does anyone know a terrazzo installer that has samples you can see ?
I am looking to do custom, possibly with shells, but would like to see options to start.
Also polished concrete that includes aggregate.
Thanks !

Thanks.
I would also like to see some polished concrete samples that are more custom as well.
Seeing terrazzo in Europe – felt like a way to incude something amazing and cleanable.
I have heard of people adding shells, chips and glass to concrete, but haven’t seen it.

Yes, I am looking into polished concrete as well, mostly looking at gallery floors, but was intrigued by the possibilities of a more elegant and surprising surface. Lots of possibilities to see on line, but reality is different. The contractor will make custom samples. Expensive and I wanted to at least see a starting point.

My experience with terrazzo is that is manufactured per job and not simply purchased and installed. BUT, the last time i ordered any was 25 yrs ago. We used a manufacturer in westchester.

I work in a lot of houses and do not see a lot of terrazzo around. I think of it as a commercial product. Polished concrete on the other hand, i see that on floors and countertops all over brooklyn and ma hattan. Not sure if these come from the kind of vendor.
