Calacatta Chiara is a sophisticated dolomite marble quarried in Brazil, highly regarded for its refined and timeless aesthetic. It features a luminous creamy-white to beige background, elegantly interlaced with delicate grey and subtle gold veining. This natural stone offers a perfect bridge between the classic look of Italian marble and the enhanced durability characteristic of dolomitic structures. Often used for high-end countertops and vertical applications, it brings a warm, soft elegance to both residential and commercial interiors. Interestingly, while it shares the prestigious Calacatta name, its Brazilian origin and mineral composition often make it more resistant to acid etching than traditional calcite marbles.
Calacatta Chiara is a 2 cm beige dolomite from Brazil, offered in a polished finish. Lot 195480 measures about 118″ × 75″ and is currently on hold at our Los Angeles yard.
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 beige. 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 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 195480 at our Los Angeles yard shows 2 slabs in stock, 2 slabs on hold, and none currently available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.
The yard can confirm whether a held slab can be released.
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 Kitchen and a Powder.
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.
