Etoile is La Fenice’s latest high-end marble look where they use their superior glazes and knowledge to create incredible depth and a soft finish. They blended quartzite and onyx graphics to come up with a crystalline marble look that has movement without strong veins and that has so much depth that really feels like you are looking through translucent layers on top to see many other layers beneath the surface. The Bianco and Beige colors are right on trend and perfect in this look; the pale blue Azzurro color stands out because it is something unique and special.
Marmi Carrara offers the timelessly beautiful look of Carrara marble. Extracted from quarries in Northern Italy since Ancient Roman times, Carrara has been used in notable buildings, memorials and artwork all over the world for centuries. Characterized by a soft white with wispy grey veining, it is a truly classic look whether used on its own or combined with other items (e.g. Marquinia) in checkerboards or other patterns.
Scultorea features the quintessential white marble look of Statuario Argento. By combining Marca Corona’s stellar historical success with making white marbles and their updated and enhanced technology, this is the new, improved generation for statuario-look porcelain. We are stocking 12x24 and 24x48 in both Natural and Polished. Then there is a 2x10 size in the new Velvet finish which is like a silky honed marble. The 8-1/2” Hex and the mosaics come in Natural only.
Mood is a tribute to the timeless beauty of salvaged stones from Provence and a testament to the past that returns with authenticity and character. These surfaces, designed by the passing of time, tell stories in which nature and culture blend together in perfect harmony. Gazzini interprets this textural legacy by creating a surface with color variation and graphic details that evoke the character of timeworn stones. The worn effect and color stratifications create an authentic aesthetic. With multiple sizes to create traditional French patterns, and a deco that adds a unique flavor, this is a line that will be fun to play with.
Marca Corona excels at white marbles and Delicata is the new collection showcasing their special skill and expanding the concept into warmer tones. The Calacatta Velato is timeless, sophisticated and remarkably subtle, with veins that are so gently rendered that it really looks like they are underneath the surface, and some pieces have almost no veining at all. The Pure Avorio is a honey onyx. It’s warm and inviting, and the same technique of layered graphics creates a depth where it feels like you are looking through a translucent surface to what’s beneath. The Taj Cristallo is the much sought-after Cristallo version of Taj Mahal. They worked hard to get the color just right and also toned down the graphic of the real marble to make it even more appealing. The Velvet finish feels like a honed surface, that is smooth but still passes DCOF.
With Marfil, Pamesa brings the look of Crema Marfil marble to porcelain. This ever-popular classic marble is especially sought after right now as people lean into creating spaces with warm color palettes. Its cream background with beige and tan veins gives it a soft and cozy feel. Pamesa used 3D technology to achieve the look which makes it quite difficult to tell that it’s a porcelain with all the technical advantages that entails.
Antique Lux is a new generation of marble-look porcelain. Gazzini always has a special approach with their marble looks and, with this line, they are taking advantage of exciting new technology to achieve a final product that truly looks and feels like real marble. The glazes are applied in a way that perfectly follows the surface structure, creating veins that you can feel as well as see. The special finish is made the same way as fully polished material, with polishing wheels that rub the surface, but without going as deep as with full polishing, creating an elegant satin finish. The finish also has technical advantages such as better resistance to scratching and no risk of microporosities. By the innovative combination of these two techniques, we have a marble look that is extremely natural to the touch as well as stunningly beautiful. The line comes in 6 colors that are familiar yet unique. Gazzini was inspired by real marble, and then they finessed the graphics and colors to make them even more attractive to market demands.

Arkigeo draws inspiration from the beauty that the Earth patiently creates through the long cycles of geological time. Born from the combination of shells, sedimentary layers, and subtle veins, the forces of nature create limestone as an intricate palette of sands in harmonious and naturalistic shades. The final look is organic and the color palette is balanced and serene. We are stocking the 12 x 24, 24 x 48, and 3“ Hexagon. There is also a Decorative in 12 x 24 called Patina that coordinates with all 6 colors. Arkigeo is suitable for residential and commercial use.
Gazzini’s new marble, White Beauty, is their interpretation of the real marble with the same name. They wanted to make a marble with green tones and selected the White Beauty because it’s a unique material that is now difficult to find and extremely expensive due to the quarry closing in 2023. They achieved the realistic look and feel by using large quantities of glaze and layering them in a way to get the very deep green and black veins that are the defining part of this marble’s look. They also brush the surface which creates additional depth in the graphic and also gives it a touch that feels honed.
It is not easy to emulate the true, deep black of the popular Nero Marquinia marble from Spain but Gazzini rose to the challenge with their Marquinia series. Using the purest raw materials in their colored-body porcelain clay, they were able to obtain a genuine black color. By adding the marble’s distinctive white veins, this porcelain is recognizable as a superior interpretation of a classic and dramatic choice. It is suitable for residential applications.
Motif reproduces all the special features of the classic Calacatta Gold marble of Italian tradition. The vein, color, tactile sensation and visual impact all reflect the beauty of this noble stone with it’s bright white background and warm veining. With the Natural (honed) and Polished finishes, and multiple sizes and mosaics, Motif offers a full range of options within this one color series.
The aesthetic of Stonecloud is simple without being plain. Inspired by volcanic lava, the graphic has subtle shading and small mineral spots. The result is something that has depth and interest without adhering to an identifiable pattern. The color palette includes attractive neutrals, a clean white, and a rich, deep blue. All five colors are stocked in two finishes, Natural and Embossed, each enlivened with important details. The Natural finish is not completely flat and has matte and shiny areas that reflect the light in different ways. The Embossed finish has a delicately raised linear structure that has a pleasant worn effect, creating a structured porcelain that is still easy to clean.
