Calacatta Viola Appraisal

Calacatta Viola Marble Countertop Slab

This is a book-matched Calacatta Viola marble countertop slab, measuring approximately 6 feet in length, 3 feet in width, and 1 inch in thickness. The stone is characterized by its creamy white to light grey background, heavily veined with dramatic, deep burgundy and violet brecciated patterns typical of high-quality Italian marble from the Apuan Alps. The piece is constructed from two mirrored slabs joined at a central seam to create a symmetrical book-match effect, which highlights the natural rhythmic flow of the mineral deposits. The edges appear finished with a slight radius or eased profile. The surface reflects a high-honed or polished finish, showcasing the intricate crystalline structure of the Breccia marble. Based on its contemporary application and clean cuts, it is likely of modern production. The condition appears consistent with a recently fabricated architectural element; the seam is visible but tight, and the natural fissures inherent to this variety of marble appear stable. No significant chips or surface etching are immediately apparent in the image, suggesting a well-maintained or new piece of high-end architectural finishings.
