Bianco Calacatta Marble Slab

Marble has been a hallmark of wealth and good taste. Marble has been a stalwart standby for millennia in ancient palaces, museums and temples around the world. Marble is velvet luxury, somehow unattainable using other materials in sculpture, architecture and interiors. One of the most popular, and most beautiful of all marbles is the white Calacatta Marble. It has creamy white backdrop and a veining that has personality. It can turn any space into something extraordinary.

Bianco Calacatta Marble is also known as Calacatta Bianco Marble, or simply Bianco Calacatta. It is a high-end, luxury Italian marble mined in the Carrara Region of Tuscany. There is a widespread confusion between Bianco Calacatta Marble and Carrara Marble. Bianco Calacatta Marble is much more precious and desirable due to its white background and its thick, dramatic veining.

The veins in every Bianco Calacatta Marble Slab are beautiful and are always some shade of a light gray to dark charcoal gray. The veins look like they were painted by hand on the white canvas. This is what makes Italian Calacatta Marble so beautiful: every piece of Bianco Calacatta Marble is a one-of-a-kind slab or work of art.
