On hand at our Los Angeles yard: 7 slabs of Calacatta Barocco, a 2 cm tan marble from Italy in a polished finish. Lot PLST1150 measures about 118″ × 75″.

This slab

The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 118″ × 75″, about 61 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is tan. 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 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.

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 Kitchen and a Powder.

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.

About Calacatta Barocco

Calacatta Barocco is a rare and prestigious Italian marble that offers a warm, sophisticated departure from traditional cool-white varieties. Quarried in the renowned Carrara region, this stone is distinguished by a luxurious tan and creamy background, elegantly interlaced with the bold, fluid veining characteristic of the Calacatta family. Its name pays homage to the ornate and dramatic aesthetic of the Baroque era, reflecting the stone's ability to create a sense of grandeur in high-end interiors.

While most Calacatta marbles are prized for their stark whiteness, the Barocco selection is favored by designers for its unique earth-toned palette, which pairs beautifully with natural wood and gold accents. Due to its limited availability and striking movement, it is frequently used as a centerpiece for book-matched feature walls and luxury vanities. As a natural dolomite marble, it offers a dense structure that takes an exceptional polish, enhancing the depth of its unique golden-tan hues.
