Calacatta Paonazzo Marble – The Charming Choice

Paonazzo is a stylish marble extracted from the same Italian quarries producing popular varieties of traditional Calacatta Oro. Known as Paonazzo, Calacatta Paonazzo or Paonazzetto, this marble gets its name from the Italian word for purple and can feature deep violet veining upon an ivory background. However, the marble’s dark and bold veining often carries black, brown, or even unique blue-green tones.

A Taste of Honey

Paonazzo Marble features a lovely touch of warm coloration which has become one of its most admired and sought-after properties. Rich, honey-tinged veining gives the material a fashionable vintage-feel. And its rust, antique look emanates an old-world nostalgia that feels classically elegant as opposed to outdated.

Charming Choice for A Modern Kitchen

Paonazzo’s unique coloration and gold accents have become a designer’s dream for making captivating statements in chic, modern kitchens:

Chris Miniello of Birch & Tailor used IRG’s Paonazzetto Marble in an otherwise sleek, earth-toned kitchen in San Francisco’s Cole Valley.

Famed SF designer Geoffrey De Sousa created a work of art with IRG’s Calacatta Paonazzo. This elegant kitchen would be any culinary artist’s dream!

Homeowner and blogger Kelly Huibregste visited IRG during her search for the perfect marble and fell in love with Paonazzetto. She paired her marble selection with modern blue cabinets, along with brass and wood elements that complement gold tones within the countertop and backsplash.

IRG carries a vast in-stock collection of Calacatta Paonazzo Marble, further enhanced by sister varieties like Macchia Vecchia marbles. These vintage-yet-vogue stone choices can showcase wispier, feathered veining and stronger grey and honey tones with rust colorations.
