Bianco Perlino marble, also known by the name of biancone marble or biancone Asiago marble, is a precious stone with a classic and elegant character and a milky white color extracted from the Asiago plateau in the province of Vicenza.
Available in large quantities, bianco Perlino marble is usually cross cut but it is also possible to choose the vein cut to make its characteristic horizontal veins more visible.
Bianco Perlino marble is a sedimentary stone made up of dense and regular layers of micritic limestone and microfossils as well as other impurities such as nodules, flint beds and ammonites. The so-called thinness is another distinctive feature of bianco Perlino marble: technically, it is microfractures which can be highlighted thanks to particular finishes such as brushing or sandblasting.
From a chromatic point of view, unlike most white marbles, bianco Perlino marble is quite homogeneous in terms of shades, oscillating between ivory and milky white. The difference in color can be noticed between the lower part and the upper part of the quarry from which bianco Perlino marble is extracted: while at the bottom there is a warmer color, rising towards the top bianco Perlino marble touches colder shades close to ice white.
Bianco Perlino marble is more suitable for furnishing interiors and for creating floors, wall coverings, stairs, columns and windowsills.
