STONE SPOTLIGHT: 4 Things to Know About IRG’s Calacatta Vagli Marble

1. Calacatta Vagli Marble is a standout among marbles.

Many Italian marbles have white-toned backgrounds, and most are very valuable and easily recognizable. But it’s the coloration of IRG’s luxurious Calacatta Vagli Marble that sets it apart from others in its class. Rich veins of taupe and grey-blue weave across a creamy white backdrop, then splashes of gold are shot throughout making it a truly glamorous choice for your home.

2. Calacatta Vagli Marble is timeless and elegant.

Ornate and not ordinary, IRG’s Calacatta Vagli is a perfect choice for use in sophisticated kitchen design or for an impressive primary bathroom. Just remember that any marble will show the signs of use and wear over time. Patina is inevitable but many homeowners consider it a plus and enjoy the additional beauty of a natural stone surface as it changes through generations (read more about patina on stone here).

3. Marble is more porous than other stone choices.

If you love strong veining and classic upscale looks, go ahead, and go for marble. Be aware that acidic ingredients can leave etch marks; so, wipe any spills away quickly. Be sure to properly seal your surfaces at installation and regularly reseal as part of your maintenance upkeep.
