Is this marble? Do you know the name?

I don't think I have ever seen this type of marble before. I thought it was some kind of Calacatta but now I am not sure. Do you like it? It would be for a guest bathroom with white cabinets. This would be the replacement for the one that was cut wrong. I could do this one but it's very different and I don't know if I can picture it cut. I kind of like it. It's a remnant, don't know the cost yet. She said since it's a remnant about $45 but she had to check to be sure. I wouldn't want to pay more than that for it.

Looks like quartzite to me.

I very much believe that is calacutta cielo, which we put in our master bath and upstairs laundry. If so, it is a marble and $45/sq. ft. would be a great price and a heck of a lot less than we paid! If you don't buy it, where is it located (geographically)? Maybe I'll go back and get some more for night stands for our bedroom?

It looks a little like something I'm considering right now, Calacatta Fantastico

hey beaglesdoitbetter - i love your dark cabinets in the last pix. can you share the color or stain color?

I am going to use a granite/quartzite which looks exactly like this stone and I am wrestling with the cabinet color (in a bathroom). thanks!

Thanks so much. I was almost getting cold feet on this. Also, I'd be surprised if that $45 holds up that is what the clueless person was telling me but then said she really didn't know... I'm supposed to get the price tomorrow. This is the craziest company on earth to get information out of. Anyway, they do fabricating and supply and it is in North Georgia. The reason it is less in price is because it is a remnant. Not at all sure of how much it would be otherwise.

Thank you so much for your pictures!! I loved looking at them Beagles and Segbrown. Gorgeous. I really wanted the Calacatta gold but long story short, it's not doable. It's very expensive, I have not been able to get a remnant that would work. I don't have time to keep waiting as it's been weeks with the plumbing disconnected. I'm ready to move on! I am hoping this will work out and will look pretty in the upstairs bath. It's very unusual! beagles it looks great in your laundry room that visual really helped. Segbrown that slab you are looking at goes perfectly with your other samples of carpet and cabinet. Hope you get it!
