The material
Sourced in Tuscany and widely used by sculptors, Carrara’s the most classic of all marbles – a cool white with delicate grey-blue veins. It’s a natural material, so expect subtle variations in tone and pattern from tile to tile.
More about marble
Marble’s elegant, easy to clean and in the right setting, it’ll last for years. But it’s fairly easy to scratch and chip and it can stain if you get oil or an acidic liquid on it, like lemon juice. So, you either need to be ready to get wiping, or ready to embrace any pits or marks that come with it being lived-with and loved.
Where we see them
This herringbone pattern’s great for small kitchens and bathrooms, where you might want a finer shape than standard square tiles. You can use it for everything from a fire surround or hearth to cladding a whole wet room - mix with our Kennet hexagon marble tiles for a layered look.
