Carrara Delicato

Product overview

Carrara Delicato

A unique product, studied to achieve an accent of incomparable beauty, and lending itself to be used even in large spaces, where it can fully express its sophisticated simplicity.

Carrara is an Italian marble extracted in the mountains surrounding the Tuscan city that gives it its name.  The pure whiteness of its background is enriched by very delicate grey veins and granulations.

With our redesign we chose the purest natural white to obtain a pristine appearance of the background. In addition we carefully worked on veins,  refining  the medium intensity of their grey color, and we enriched them by an almost imperceptible shade of green, to add depth and uniqueness. Finally, we offer a touch of refined sophistication through a more regular distribution of the grains.

The result is a surface that stands for a reduced visual complexity compared to the stone of inspiration, catching the eyes for a  delicate look that still preserves its classic allure.
