Verde Antigua is a prestigious marble that captures the essence of classical Mediterranean elegance. Though often associated with Italian design, this natural stone is primarily sourced from Iran, where it is celebrated for its distinctive sage to aquamarine background. Its surface is a dynamic canvas of intricate white and dark green veining, occasionally accented by soft lilac or cream flows. Known for its fine-grained structure, it offers a sophisticated, minimalist aesthetic ideal for luxury interiors, ranging from polished countertops to detailed mosaics. Interestingly, despite its name suggesting "ancient green," its vibrant palette and unique veined structure remain a favorite for contemporary, high-end architectural projects.
Verde Antigua is a 2 cm green marble from Italy, offered in a polished finish. Lot 258864/2 measures about 118″ × 73″, with 2 slabs available at our Los Angeles yard.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 118″ × 73″, about 60 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is green. 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 258864/2 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.

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 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.
