Breccia Sarda, also known as Daino Reale or Diana Royal, is a prestigious Italian marble exclusively quarried from the Orosei region in Sardinia. This sedimentary stone is celebrated for its warm, creamy beige background and dramatic, river-like veining that ranges from soft tan to deep chocolate. Geologically classified as a biopelsparite, its surface is a spectacular mosaic of crystallized fossils, shells, and mineral encrustations formed during the Jurassic period. Its robust nature makes it a versatile choice for luxury flooring, countertops, and book-matched feature walls. Interestingly, its unique patterns are so organic that they are often compared to the natural grain of wood or even the texture of deer antlers.
Breccia Sarda/Daino Reale, also known as Daino Reale / Diana Royal — 2 cm cream with beige and grey marble, polished, about 106″ × 77″ per slab. Lot 111125/1, from Italy, has 3 slabs available and 8 on hold at our Los Angeles yard.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 106″ × 77″, about 57 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is cream with beige and grey. Natural stone still varies inside that description, so the slab itself is the reference for movement and shade. Breccia Sarda/Daino Reale is also known as Daino Reale / Diana Royal. Searching either name should lead to this same material. This material is recorded as quarried in Italy.
The polished finish is reflective and lets the color read clearly. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.
In the yard
Lot 111125/1 at our Los Angeles yard shows 11 slabs in stock, 8 slabs on hold, and 3 slabs available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.
The slabs can be compared in daylight at our Los Angeles yard before anything is cut.
Where it works
For this kind of stone, the usual applications are bathrooms, vanities, fireplace surrounds, and feature walls. 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 Breccia Sarda.
The material
Marble is a metamorphic stone, recrystallized from limestone, and it is valued for veining and a luminous surface. It is softer and more sensitive to acids than granite or quartzite, so wine, citrus, and strong cleaners can etch a polish. That is why it is a classic for bathrooms, vanities, fireplaces, and walls, and for kitchens when the owner wants the look and will live with a natural patina. A honed face shows etching less than a high polish. Vein direction should be planned on the actual slabs before fabrication.
