Lilac Milas Extra

Lilac Milas Extra marble presents a spectacularly dramatic statement for any home. We love how its bright, pristine white base provides the perfect canvas for an intricate network of fine, dark charcoal-black veins. What truly sets it apart are the warm golden-amber accents that occasionally trace these dark lines, culminating in a bold, dramatic central vein that often runs vertically across the polished surface. This unique interplay of fine, spider-web-like dark veining with those unexpected warm highlights creates an extraordinarily graphic, almost drawn quality, making it a truly captivating centrepiece.

Quarried in the Milas region of Muğla, Turkey, Lilac Milas Extra is a testament to the earth's powerful geological artistry. Like all marbles, it began as limestone or dolostone, transformed over millennia by intense heat and pressure deep within the earth. This process causes calcite crystals to recrystallize, creating its dense, interlocking structure. The dramatic charcoal-black veining comes from accessory minerals like graphite, while the golden-amber touches are hints of iron oxides, all captured during its remarkable metamorphic journey, telling a unique story in every slab.

For us, Lilac Milas Extra is an inspired choice for statement luxury worktops, whether it's the heart of a kitchen, a striking bathroom vanity, or a breathtaking splashback. While marble is renowned for its beauty, we always approach it with honest care advice. Its Mohs hardness of 3-5 means it's softer than granite or quartzite, and being porous, it benefits from regular sealing to resist stains and acid etching. We can help you choose between a polished finish that deepens its colours or a honed finish for a softer, more practical daily use. Our passion for craftsmanship means we hand-template and meticulously install every piece, ensuring a result that perfectly reflects our commitment to quality and lasting beauty.
