Cipollino Marble
Cipollino marble is a striking natural stone prized for its dramatic veining and rich green, gray, and white coloration. Quarried primarily in Greece, its name comes from the Italian word for “little onion,” referencing the layered, ribbon-like patterns that flow through each slab. This ancient marble was used in Roman architecture and has graced palaces, churches, and monuments for centuries. Today, cipollino marble is celebrated for bringing the same sense of luxury and movement into modern spaces.
