This slab

The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 122″ × 78″, about 66 square feet. Sizes across the lot run from 117″ × 78″ to 122″ × 78″. 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 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.

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.

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 Ceppo Di Vagli

Ceppo Di Vagli presents a soft white ground filled with large, angular fragments in ivory, pale gray, and cream. Fine gray veining outlines each fragment, while warm golden-amber threads run along the edges and through the cracks, adding contrast to the cool tones. The pattern has a dramatic, brecciated character, with the fragments shifting in scale and direction across the slab for a strong sense of movement. Quarried in Italy, this natural marble has a refined honed finish that suits its layered, textured look. Ceppo Di Vagli works well for feature walls, bathroom vanities, countertops, flooring, and other interior projects where a distinctive, statement surface is wanted.
