Cipollino Cloudy is a sophisticated Italian marble, primarily sourced from the historic Apuan Alps in Tuscany. This natural stone is celebrated for its soft, creamy white or light gray base, artistically disrupted by a "cloudy" or "nuvolato" effect of swirling green and charcoal veins. Its name, derived from the Italian word for "little onion," refers to the unique, layered mineral structure that mimics an onion’s skin when cut. Historically favored by Greeks and Romans for its durability and artistic movement, this metamorphic rock offers a dreamy, organic aesthetic that transforms interiors into timeless works of art.
Cipollino Cloudy is a 2 cm marble, offered in a polished finish. Lot MB20800 measures about 113″ × 52″ and is currently on hold at our Los Angeles yard.

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 Bathroom.
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.
