The Stone

See the natural beauty of Locura up close — the surface texture, colour depth, and veining that make this porcelain unique.

Crisp white veins cut through a moody dark grey canvas in a dramatic reverse-marble porcelain that turns conventional worktop design on its head.

Locura reverses the classical marble formula to striking effect. Instead of dark veins on a light base, it presents crisp white veins cutting through a rich, dark grey ground — a bold inversion that creates a surface with immediate visual impact and a thoroughly contemporary character. The contrast is dramatic yet sophisticated, making Locura an exceptional choice for statement kitchen islands, luxurious bathroom vanities, and feature fireplace surrounds that need to command a room. The dark grey base absorbs and softens ambient light, while the white veining catches it, creating a beautiful interplay of light and shadow that changes throughout the day. Locura's porcelain composition means dark surfaces pose no additional maintenance challenges — it resists fingerprints, cleaning marks, and chemical damage as efficiently as its lighter siblings.

Frequently Asked

Questions About Locura

What makes Locura a 'reverse marble' design?
Traditional marble features dark veins on a light base. Locura inverts this formula entirely: crisp white veins run across a rich dark grey base, creating a reverse-marble effect that feels thoroughly contemporary and unexpected. This inversion gives Locura a bold, modern personality that stands apart from conventional marble-effect designs.
How does Locura compare to Impermia and Smokestone?
All three are dark surfaces with white veining, but at different darkness levels and vein intensities. Locura has a dark grey base with prominent white veins. Impermia has a deep black base with fine, crisp white veins. Smokestone has a deep black base with bolder, broader white veins. Locura is the lightest of the three and has the most grey depth.
Is Locura suitable for a statement kitchen island?
Locura is designed to make a statement. The dramatic contrast between its dark grey base and white veining creates a striking focal point that draws the eye immediately. On a large kitchen island, the veining pattern flows uninterrupted across the 1600×3200mm slab, creating an immersive, gallery-quality surface that anchors the entire room.
Does the dark surface of Locura require more maintenance?
Locura's porcelain body requires exactly the same minimal maintenance as lighter surfaces — warm soapy water and a soft cloth. However, because the dark grey background shows dust, water spots, and crumbs more readily than lighter surfaces, you may find yourself wiping it down more frequently for aesthetic reasons. There is no additional technical maintenance required.
Can Locura be used for a fireplace surround?
Locura makes a breathtaking fireplace surround. The dark grey base and white veining create a dramatic backdrop for flames, and the porcelain body's exceptional heat resistance means it can safely be installed around working fireplaces. The reverse-marble design gives the fireplace a contemporary edge that transforms the entire room.
★★★★★
"Excellent Service and Beautiful Results - Highly Recommended! I recently had In2stone install new quartz worktops in my kitchen, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was completely stress-free. The team was not only competitively priced but also incredibly friendly and professional throughout the entire process. They handled everything seamlessly - removing the existing sink, hob, and old laminate worktops before fitting the new quartz surfaces. The finished worktops are absolutely beautiful and have transformed my kitchen into a modern, minimalist space that I love spending time in. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the attention to detail really shows. I'm a very satisfied customer and would highly recommend In2stone to anyone considering new worktops. Well done to the entire team - you've exceeded my expectations!"
