New York White Marble

New York White Marble is one of the boldest marbles in the world, with strong, delineated lightning-bolt black veining set against crisp, pure white stone. In some slabs, this veining can be seen to bloom outwards, often overlapping and creating an energetic but fresh statement piece in any room.

As a natural stone, New York White contains all of the subtle variations in tone and surface patterning that you’d expect alongside the unbeatable durability that mother nature produces. The white marble goes by many names, including  New York Carrara White and Mugla White New York. Despite its name, however, it is in fact quarried in Turkey and other European countries.

Combined with choice furnishings and finishes, White New York marble slabs and tiles are the perfect choice for benchtops and vanities for both residential and commercial projects.

New York White Marble has been used extensively around the globe in some of the most exclusive properties. Sporting the chic, elegant, and altogether timeless combination of deep black and pristine white, the marble will never look dated and will always remain in style.

This reputation for bringing a touch of luxury and class to the home or commercial space is bolstered by its durability. White New York Marble is chip resistant, especially after sealing and finishing, meaning it can withstand even the most demanding of environments.

With its classic colour pairing, New York White suits any type of decor too. From modern minimalist to charming rustic spaces, the stone’s bright appearance elevates any environment.

Common Uses of New York White Marble

Possessing both strength and beauty, White New York slabs find themselves used in a host of different projects.

With its large expanses of white keeping things airy, New York White is often found as cladding, especially in lobbies, hallways, and bathrooms.

With diverse, ultra-detailed veining splashed across the face of the marble, however, it is also extremely popular as kitchen benchtops as it is heat-resistant even to very high temperatures. It’s also a popular choice for vanity tops adding a dash of elegance to a powder room or bathroom. The white stone reflects strongly and opens up smaller spaces with the veining occasionally arresting attention and drawing in the eye.
