Palissandro Classico

A rare Piedmont marble with warm, wood-grain veining

Palissandro Classico is a natural marble from the Ossola Valley in Piedmont, northern Italy, near the Swiss border - the only deposit of this marble anywhere in the world.
A genuinely distinctive pale cream base laced with warm golden-brown veining that runs in linear bands, echoing rosewood timber grain - the origin of its name.

TECHNICAL OPTIONS

FINISHES: Polished
THICKNESS: 20mm, 30mm
SPACES: Bathrooms, Commercial, Kitchen
RESISTANCE: Heat

Palissandro Classico is quarried in a single deposit in the Ossola Valley of Piedmont, a different region entirely from the famous Carrara marbles of Tuscany, giving it a genuinely rare provenance.

Its warm, linear veining running through a pale cream ground resembles the grain of rosewood – or ‘palisandro’ – timber, making it especially well suited to bookmatched panels that echo natural wood grain.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Stone to last

a lifetime

As a natural stone, this marble is porous and should be sealed on installation, with re-sealing roughly every 12-18 months to guard against staining. Wipe up spills promptly - acidic liquids such as wine, citrus juice and vinegar can etch and dull the polished surface - and always clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner rather than bleach, ammonia or other acidic or abrasive products. Use a chopping board and trivets to protect against scratches and heat marks. With correct care, marble develops a genuine natural patina and remains a beautiful, long-lasting surface for generations.
