Verde Alpi is a prestigious Italian marble, celebrated for its deep, forest-green base and dramatic white veining. Quarried in the Alpine regions of Northern Italy, specifically Valle d'Aosta, this stone is a quintessential choice for high-contrast, luxury interiors. Its intense coloration is primarily due to minerals like serpentine and chlorite, which create a layered, crystalline structure reminiscent of dense alpine forests. Historically sought after since antiquity, Verde Alpi offers a bold architectural identity, making it ideal for statement feature walls, elegant bathroom vanities, and sophisticated flooring. Interestingly, while commonly called marble in the trade, it is geologically a serpentine stone, prized for its unique "snakeskin" appearance.
Verde Alpi is a 2 cm green with semi-white and white marble from Italy, offered in a polished finish. Lot 17412 measures about 117″ × 78″, with 3 slabs available and one on hold at our Los Angeles yard.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 117″ × 78″, about 63 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is green with semi-white and 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 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 17412 at our Los Angeles yard shows 4 slabs in stock, one slab on hold, and 3 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 Kitchen and a Fireplace.
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.
