Alabaster White

Alabaster White reveals a luminous, bright white base, traversed by elegant diagonal veining that flows gracefully across its pristine surface. These fine, flowing veins appear in warm rose-gold, soft grey, and delicate beige-taupe tones, creating a refined, calligraphic quality with a beautiful interplay of cool and warm hues. Its polished finish enhances this sophisticated blend, making Alabaster White a breathtaking choice for luxury worktops that capture light and attention.

This exquisite marble is quarried from the Western Anatolia region of Turkey, a land rich in geological history. Alabaster White, like all marbles, is a non-foliated metamorphic rock, formed over millennia as limestone or dolostone recrystallises under immense heat and pressure, typically around 125-180°C and 1200-1500 bar. The pure white primary calcite matrix is infused with accessory minerals – such as iron oxides for its warm rose-gold blush and graphite for the subtle greys – which define its unique veining patterns.

At In2Stone, we see Alabaster White as an exceptional choice for those seeking a touch of classic luxury, perfect for stunning kitchen worktops, elegant bathroom vanities, or dramatic splashbacks. Like all natural marbles, Alabaster White is primarily composed of calcite, making it softer than granite and sensitive to acids. We always recommend regular sealing to protect its inherent porosity and using chopping boards to prevent scratches. For daily use in kitchens, some homeowners find a honed finish a practical choice as it helps to mask any etching over time, though the polished finish truly enhances its lustre. Our passion for craftsmanship means every slab is templated by hand and cut with precision, ensuring the joins are seamless and the final installation truly reflects the beauty of this stone.
