Lot 66955 is a 2 cm Rainbow White marble, in a polished finish. The slabs measure about 107″ × 71″ at our Los Angeles slab gallery.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 107″ × 71″, about 53 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.
The polished finish is reflective and lets the color read clearly. 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 Rainbow White
Rainbow White is a distinctive marble variety characterized by its pristine white base accented by a vibrant spectrum of multicolored veining. These striking patterns can feature shades of pink, purple, beige, and gold, occasionally presenting hints of green or blue. This metamorphic rock formed from limestone subjected to intense heat and pressure, resulting in a dense, crystalline structure primarily composed of calcite. Its dynamic appearance makes it a popular choice for adding a sophisticated yet colorful touch to luxury flooring and wall applications. Interestingly, the presence of various mineral impurities like iron oxides and clay during the stone's formation is what creates its signature "rainbow" effect.
