Luna Di Argento is an exquisite white marble quarried from the rich geological formations of Brazil. True to its name, which translates to Moon of Silver, this natural stone features a luminous white background elegantly interlaced with a sophisticated network of soft grey and silvery veining. This marble is highly prized for its serene, contemporary aesthetic, offering a poetic alternative to traditional European varieties. Characterized by its dense mineral structure, Luna Di Argento provides exceptional durability and a refined crystalline texture. Interestingly, many Brazilian marbles like this one are geologically dolomitic, granting them a higher resistance to scratching and acid etching compared to standard calcitic marbles, making it a superior choice for high-traffic surfaces.
This honed marble is Luna Di Argento, in white, cut at 2 cm and quarried in Brazil. Lot 1005702 measures about 126″ × 80″, with 2 slabs available at our Los Angeles yard.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 126″ × 80″, about 70 square feet. 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 Brazil.
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 1005702 at our Los Angeles yard shows 2 slabs in stock, none on hold, and 2 slabs available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.
The slabs can be compared in daylight at our Los Angeles yard before anything is cut.
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 Modern Kitchen.
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.
