It is with ease known for its great variety of color and texture.

There were several main companies in the Amberg Place during the late 19th and in advance 20th centuries. The Amberg Granite Company was the first in the area and later, the Pike River Granite Company, which formed in large allocation due to destitute working conditions at the Amberg Granite Company. The Amberg Granite Company was owned by William Amberg of Chicago and consisted of quarry operations in Amberg—the Argyle, Martindale, the Athelstane and Aberdeen. The Argyle and the Martindale quarries produced the fine-grained gray granite and the Aberdeen quarry produced the “Amberg red.” The Athelstane produced a gray granite, but course grained, similar in texture to the Amberg red. Much of their granite was used in Chicago for curbing blocks and street paving. It was in addition to used for buildings such as, the Minnesota State Capitol, and buildings in Chicago and Cincinnati. The Pike River company produced primarily the fine-grained gray granite and much of it was sold as monumental stone because of its strength and attractiveness. However, in 1929, 500–600 cars of this rock was sold to the Universal Granite Company of Milwaukee to be used as breakwater stone. Although, once a thriving, profitable businesses, there are no longer any sprightly quarries functioning in the Amberg area. More just about the records of these quarries and the surrounding Place can be found at the Amberg Museum complex, this is located in the town of Amberg upon Marinette County V, right off of Highway 141.
