What Rojo Alicante Marble Looks Like
Red rules the slab in the photo: an even terracotta with the gloss of a polished finish, broken only by a few diagonal white veins. The veins are medium width and come with small dark flecks. The contrast is medium: the white vein stands out clearly without covering the background. The play between the terracotta and the white veins varies moderately across this slab.

Questions about Rojo Alicante marble
Are Rosso Alicante and Rojo Alicante the same stone?
Yes. Rosso Alicante is another way of writing the name of this marble: both say the same thing.
How do I tell Rojo Alicante marble apart from Rosso Cardinale?
In its photo, Cardinale leans burgundy, with irregular white veins and some gray-violet patches. In the Alicante photo the background is an even terracotta, with a few diagonal white veins and almost nothing else. Choose by the mood you want: a busier red or a more even one.
How does Rojo Alicante marble hold up on a kitchen countertop?
It works if you accept the patina: over the years, use leaves marks that stay. Lemon juice, vinegar or tomato sauce etch dull patches into the polish that no cleaner brings back. Sealer helps with coffee and oil stains, though it does not make the surface waterproof. For a hard-working kitchen, granite stands up better to acids.
What care does Rojo Alicante marble need?
Day to day, a cloth dampened with neutral soap and water is enough. If wine, lemon or vinegar spills, wipe it up right away. If a water spot darkens a while after it lands on the stone, the slab is asking for sealer.
Is the slab photo real?
It is a real slab of this marble, in its polished finish. Yours will come with its own pattern, because no marble slab repeats another. Before you buy, we send photos of the slabs available for your order.
