Botticino Marble
Botticino is a compact beige limestone that takes a polish like marble, which is how it is sold and specified. The colour runs cream to warm beige with fine darker veining and occasional shell fragments — quieter than Calacatta or Emperador, which makes it a common choice when the stone needs to sit back rather than dominate.
What's in this collection
Field tile in 2x2 through 24x24, pre-assembled mosaics on 12x12 mesh, slabs for countertops and vanities, and hand-carved vessel, farmhouse and pedestal sinks.
Finishes
- Polished — reflective, deepens the beige and shows the veining.
- Honed — matte, hides water spots and foot traffic better than polished.
- Tumbled — softened edges and a slightly pitted face, common for floors and rustic walls.
- Split-face — rough broken surface, used on feature walls and backsplashes.
Where it works
Beige reads warm under most lighting, so Botticino pairs easily with wood, brass and off-white cabinetry. It is used on bathroom floors and walls, kitchen backsplashes, vanity tops and fireplace surrounds. Like all limestone-family stone it is porous — seal it on installation and keep acidic cleaners away from it.
Custom sizing
Sinks and slabs can be cut to your dimensions. Standard lead time is 3–4 weeks; the Special Order program runs 8–14 weeks at a lower price point.
What to expect from natural stone
Colour, veining and pitting vary from block to block. Photographs show a representative piece rather than the exact one that ships. This variation is inherent to quarried stone, not a defect.
