An exceptionally pure Italian Carrara marble, where sharp networks of silver-grey and charcoal veining etch across a brilliantly luminous honed white surface.
White Carrara CD Extra 1st Honed is a truly spectacular Italian marble, prized for its incredibly pristine, brilliantly luminous pure white background. The beautifully matte, profoundly tactile honed surface is wonderfully characterised by highly distinct, incredibly sharp yet fabulously balanced networks of beautifully contrasting darker silver-grey and charcoal veining. Its spectacularly crisp and immensely sophisticated character offers a clean, elegant foundation for any luxury space.
This exquisite marble originates from the legendary quarries of Carrara in Tuscany, Italy, a region synonymous with the world's finest white marble for millennia. Formed deep within the Earth as limestone recrystallised under intense heat and pressure, Carrara marble is primarily composed of calcite. The unique mineral impurities present in this geological setting — often graphite or iron oxides — are what give rise to the signature, beautifully balanced grey and charcoal veining patterns that define Carrara CD Extra 1st.
At In2Stone, we believe in bringing this natural artistry into your home with meticulous care. This honed Carrara marble is a fabulously elegant choice for exceptionally striking luxury worktops, particularly well-suited for kitchens and bathrooms where its tactile finish can truly shine. While marble does require a little attention, such as regular sealing and mindful cleaning due to its porous nature and acid sensitivity, its timeless beauty and the honest craftsmanship we put into every installation make it an enduring investment.
