The Stone

See the natural beauty of Crema Marfil Extra up close — the surface texture, colour depth, and veining that make this marble unique.

Style:

Natural Swirled Polished

From Spain's Alicante region, Crema Marfil Extra is a renowned marble with an exceptionally pure, warm ivory-cream base, graced by soft, translucent cloudy formations.

Crema Marfil Extra is a truly exceptional marble, presenting a warm ivory-cream base that radiates purity and luminosity. Across its polished surface, you'll discover beautifully soft, translucent cloudy formations, giving the stone an ethereal depth that feels truly premium. Unlike other varieties, this 'Extra' grade delivers superior uniformity and a creamier tonality, with only minimal veining allowing the stone's inherent warmth and consistency to shine through. It's this enhanced depth and purity that makes it such a discerning choice for luxury worktops.

Quarried from the sun-drenched region of Alicante in Valencia, Spain, Crema Marfil Extra is a testament to the earth's transformative power. This non-foliated metamorphic rock began its life as limestone, before immense heat and pressure recrystallised its calcite crystals into the dense, interlocking mosaic we see today. The warm ivory-cream hue and subtle formations are a signature of its geological journey, with trace minerals giving it that characteristic luminous tonality that has made Spanish marble world-famous.

For us at In2Stone, selecting Crema Marfil Extra means choosing a stone that embodies elegance and warmth for any space. While its inherent beauty shines in luxury kitchen worktops and opulent bathroom vanities, we always advise embracing marble's unique character. Its calcite composition means it’s sensitive to acids and requires mindful care and regular sealing to maintain its pristine appearance. We hand-template and install every slab with precision and passion, ensuring that the finished result — whether polished for a classic gleam or honed for a softer look — truly reflects the quality and craftsmanship we stand for, bringing honest luxury into your home.

Frequently Asked

Questions About Crema Marfil Extra

What makes Crema Marfil Extra's appearance so distinctive?
Crema Marfil Extra is renowned for its exceptionally pure, warm ivory-cream base. What truly sets it apart are the beautifully soft, translucent cloudy formations that gracefully appear across the polished surface, giving it a luminous depth. This 'Extra' grade also offers superior uniformity and a creamier tonality compared to other selections, with only minimal veining.
How can I best integrate Crema Marfil Extra into my kitchen design?
Crema Marfil Extra's warm ivory-cream tones and luminous quality make it incredibly versatile. It pairs beautifully with classic, traditional kitchens, bringing warmth to painted cabinetry in shades of cream, sage, or navy. For a more contemporary feel, contrast it with dark wood or matte black units, allowing its elegant simplicity to truly stand out. It creates an inviting atmosphere in both kitchens and bathrooms.
How should I care for my Crema Marfil Extra marble worktops?
As a natural marble, Crema Marfil Extra is made primarily of calcite, making it sensitive to acidic substances like lemon juice or wine, which can cause etching. We always recommend regular sealing to protect against stains and wiping up spills promptly. Marble has a Mohs hardness of 3-5, so while durable, it can scratch; using chopping boards and trivets is advisable to preserve its pristine polished surface.
Where does Crema Marfil Extra marble come from?
Crema Marfil Extra is quarried from the Alicante region of Valencia, Spain. This area is famous for producing some of the world's most beautiful and consistent marble. It's a metamorphic rock, meaning it formed over millions of years from limestone under intense heat and pressure, transforming into the dense, crystalline calcite structure we see today.
Is Crema Marfil Extra a premium choice for worktops?
Yes, Crema Marfil Extra is considered a premium-grade selection of this renowned Spanish marble. Its 'Extra' designation signifies superior uniformity, creamier tonality, and enhanced purity, making it a more refined and sought-after option. While all marble offers luxury, this specific grade is chosen for its consistent visual appeal and exceptional quality, reflecting a discerning investment in your home's aesthetic.
