Calacatta Classic marble
Marble · Italy
No single vein dominates this slab: light gray comes in as fine, diffuse diagonal lines over an even white background. Calacatta Classic is a white with continuous pattern, made for bathrooms and walls where the surface is seen whole.

What Calacatta Classic marble looks like
An even white background, crossed by fine, diffuse light gray streaks that run on the diagonal. The veins spread evenly over the whole surface. Contrast stays in the middle: from afar the slab reads white with a soft veil, up close you can tell each stroke apart. Within this slab the pattern changes little: the streaks keep the same character edge to edge. In the photo you can see the straps or supports holding it.

Calacatta Classic marble finishes
On such an even white, the finish changes the reflection and the feel under the hand more than the pattern.
-
Polished
Maximum reflection: on the even white, the fine diagonal veins carry more presence.
-
Honed
Matte and soft to the touch: the reflection drops and the shower or wet floor asks for less care.
-
Brushed
Combs the surface with a fine grain that takes the gloss away entirely; an option for floors and showers.

Questions about Calacatta Classic
How is it different from Calacatta Vagli?
The difference is in the direction of the veining. Calacatta Vagli forms an irregular web of fine veins; this selection runs diagonally, with soft strokes spread evenly. If you are torn, ask for both photos and compare them before you decide.
Does Calacatta Classic work as a kitchen countertop?
It fits if you accept the surface taking on character over the years. Spilled lemon or wine leaves a dull zone on the polish; sealer helps with what the stone absorbs. If you'd rather have a much harder surface, a quartzite offers a similar look.
Does Calacatta Classic need sealer?
Day to day, use water and neutral soap, drying wine or tomato as soon as it lands. The stone is porous: sealer reduces how much it absorbs without making it waterproof. Put a drop of water on the stone: if the spot darkens, it's time to seal again.
Is the photo the slab I'll be sent?
It's a real slab: you can see the straps or supports holding it during the shoot. Yours will be a different one, because every slab carries its own pattern. Before you buy, we send you photos of the slabs available for your order.
