Astoria White — 2 cm white dolomite, honed, about 131″ × 82″ per slab. Lot 15421, from Brazil, has 2 slabs available at our Los Angeles yard.

This slab

The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 131″ × 82″, about 75 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is white. Natural stone still varies inside that description, so the slab itself is the reference for movement and shade. This material is recorded as quarried in Brazil.

The honed finish is smooth and matte, without a high gloss. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.

Where it works

For this kind of stone, the usual applications are bathrooms, vanities, and light-use counters. The right use still depends on the finish, the thickness, and how the slab will be cared for after it is installed. Inspiration photos show this stone in a Bathroom.

The material

Dolomite is a carbonate stone. In the showroom it is often grouped with marble, and many bright white names are dolomite rather than calcite marble. It is generally a little harder than calcite marble, but it can still etch, so care is closer to marble than to granite. Judge movement and brightness from the slab, not from the name alone.

About Astoria White

Astoria White is a sophisticated dolomite quarried from the rich geological formations of Brazil. This natural stone is defined by its luminous white background, elegantly interlaced with a complex network of soft grey veining and subtle charcoal accents. As a dolomite, it offers a denser and more durable alternative to traditional marble, providing superior resistance to scratching and etching while maintaining a high-end, marble-like aesthetic. Interestingly, while often grouped with marbles in design, dolomite contains magnesium, a mineral that contributes to its increased hardness. This makes Astoria White a premier choice for high-traffic areas such as kitchen countertops, flooring, and bathroom vanities.
