Nero Marquina
Our Nero Marquina marble is a high quality, black stone marble extracted from Markina, Basque County in the North of Spain. It presents fine and compact black grain with irregular white veins, which can eventually be very abundant.
Its noble and primaeval beauty offers endless aesthetic possibilities on floors, walls, bathrooms, kitchen countertops, as well as murals and ornamental pieces.
It works at its best in polished finish, combining resilience and painterly look.
