On hand at our Los Angeles yard: one available slab of Calacatta Monet Viola, a 2 cm multi marble from Italy in a honed finish. Lot B2187 measures about 125″ × 70″, with 2 slabs on hold.

This slab

The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 125″ × 70″, about 61 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is multi. 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 honed finish is smooth and matte, without a high gloss. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.

In the yard

Lot B2187 at our Los Angeles yard shows 3 slabs in stock, 2 slabs on hold, and one slab available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.

With one slab available, it suits a project that can be cut from a single piece.

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 Powder and an Accent Wall.

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 Monet Viola

Calacatta Monet Viola is a rare and prestigious Italian marble from the storied Carrara region, merging the refined elegance of Calacatta Monet with the dramatic intensity of Calacatta Viola. This "multi" colored stone is defined by a creamy white or off-white background animated by a dense, painterly network of deep purple, burgundy, and violet veining, often accented by splashes of gold and sage green. Its crystalline structure and intricate, mosaic-like patterns make it a favored choice for high-impact statement pieces like book-matched feature walls and luxury countertops. Interestingly, while most Calacatta marbles are prized for simple gray or gold tones, this variety’s unique brecciated appearance is a result of complex mineral fragments naturally fusing over geological eons.
