St Laurent is a sophisticated Italian marble, highly regarded for its deep, crystalline brown background and elegant, non-uniform veining. This calcitic marble features a rich palette where chocolate tones are artistically disrupted by striking white, gold, and occasionally coral-colored veins, creating a dramatic, high-contrast aesthetic. Renowned for its physical-mechanical performance, it is a premier choice for luxury interior applications, including high-end flooring, waterfall countertops, and bespoke bathrooms. Its refined character allows it to bridge the gap between classical and modern design effortlessly. Interestingly, while Italian varieties are prized, a similar dark marble by the same name is famously quarried in France.
St Laurent — 2 cm brown with white, black, and gold marble, polished, about 117″ × 65″ per slab. Lot GR 16794, from Italy, has one slab available at our Los Angeles yard.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 117″ × 65″, about 53 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is brown with white, black, and gold. 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 polished finish is reflective and lets the color read clearly. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.
In the yard
Lot GR 16794 at our Los Angeles yard shows one slab in stock, none 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 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.
