Emperador Grigio

Product overview

Sophisticated style

Emperador is the artificial interpretation of the homonymous marble extracted in the South of Spain which is well-known for being resistant and long lasting and used since the Roman age.

Nexion selected this finest marble and created slabs in eye-catching color variations of grey to convey a modern and sophisticated style.

Emperador is part of the Pompeii collection that translates the timeless charm of some of the most precious marbles in a contemporary language, ideal for the most ambitious design projects.
