When it comes to white marble, it is impossible not to mention the splendid Calacatta Michelangelo marble. Calacatta Michelangelo is an Italian product of excellence, considered among the purest in the mining area of the Apuan Alps and among the most famous of the entire Calacatta marble family.
The name Michelangelo Calacatta clearly derives from the very famous Renaissance artist Michelangelo Buonarroti, a proponent of white marble and in particular of the Calacatta variety. Calacatta Michelangelo marble, in fact, comes from the quarry where the great sculptor went to select the marble with which he made his works which became famous all over the globe. The Calacatta Michelangelo variety has in fact been incorporated into many of his wonderful statues.
Michelangelo Calacatta marble has a limited availability, especially in the case of absolutely pure blocks.
Calacatta Michelangelo marble is therefore considered one of the white marbles par excellence and, from a chromatic point of view, it is a very bright marble with a rather homogeneous background, less veined than the other Calacatta marbles. Its fresh white background, which in some cases reaches tones close to cream, is marked by light gray-blue, dove-gray and sometimes golden veins. The soft and veiled veins that touch the surface like thin clouds are the hallmark of the Calacatta Michelangelo marble and the element that distinguishes its immense elegance and refinement.
Due to the excellent technical characteristics of its grain, Calacatta Michelangelo has always been chosen for the creation of statues and sculptures. Furthermore, it is a material that is suitable for both outdoor and indoor environments. There are few materials produced in the world that can compete with the beauty of Calacatta Michelagelo marble which, if incorporated into your home, significantly increases its value so much that it represents a real investment.
In interior design, you can find floors and walls with Calacatta Michelangelo tiles; Calacatta Michelangelo marble stairs are a highly rated option; kitchen and bathroom tops in Calacatta Michelangelo and not to mention design or decorative elements such as tables, thresholds, frames and shelves.
