About This Stone
The Art of Black Marble
Nero Marquina marble is one of the most iconic and sought-after black marbles in the world of architecture and interior design. Defined by its intense, near-pure black background and its striking network of white calcite veins, it carries a bold visual authority that few natural stones can match.
Our Nero Marquina slabs are produced in China using the same geological composition and aesthetic qualities that have made this stone a global favourite. Each slab is individually quarried, precision-cut, and hand-selected to ensure consistent colour depth, vein clarity, and surface integrity.
Available in multiple finishes — high-gloss polished, matte honed, and textured brushed — our Nero Marquina adapts to both contemporary minimalist and classical luxury interiors with equal authority.

Our slabs are processed to a mirror-level polish of 90+ gloss units, enhancing the depth of the black ground and bringing the white veining into brilliant relief.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is Nero Marquina marble?
Nero Marquina is a type of natural marble characterised by its deep black background and contrasting white calcite veining. Traditionally associated with the Markina-Xemein region of the Basque Country in Spain, the name “Nero Marquina” is now widely used in the stone industry to describe black marble with similar aesthetics and geological composition produced in other countries, including China. Our Nero Marquina meets the same design and quality expectations as the original.
Q2: What is the difference between Chinese Nero Marquina and Spanish Nero Marquina?
Both share the same defining aesthetic — a rich black base with white veining — and both are natural marble. Chinese Nero Marquina offers a significantly more competitive price point without sacrificing the visual impact that makes the material so popular. Minor natural variations in veining pattern and depth of black tone exist between origin sources, as they would between any two quarries. Our quality control process ensures colour consistency within each batch.
Q3: Is Nero Marquina marble suitable for kitchen countertops?
Yes, with appropriate care. Marble is a natural stone and, like all marble, Nero Marquina requires sealing to resist staining from acids and liquids. For kitchen use, we recommend a high-quality penetrating sealer applied at installation and reapplied every 1–2 years. With proper maintenance, Nero Marquina countertops are durable, functional, and exceptionally beautiful.
Q4: Can you supply Nero Marquina in custom sizes?
Yes. We can cut slabs and tiles to virtually any dimension using our in-house CNC and bridge-saw equipment. Provide us with your project drawings or cut list and we will produce and verify each piece before shipment. Custom edge profiles, cutouts for sinks or cooktops, and waterjet-cut designs are all available.
Q5: What finishes are available for Nero Marquina marble?
We offer four surface finishes: Polished (mirror-gloss, 90+ gloss units — maximises the depth of black and the brilliance of white veining), Honed (matte satin surface — reduces slipperiness and fingerprints, popular for flooring), Brushed (subtly textured, aged look), and Sandblasted (rough non-slip surface for exterior applications). Most clients choose polished for interior walls and honed for floors.
Q6: What is your minimum order quantity and lead time?
Our minimum order is one 20-foot container, which holds approximately 200–250 m² of slabs depending on thickness. Mixed products from our catalogue are accepted to fill the container. Standard production and shipping lead time is 15–25 working days after order confirmation and deposit receipt. Rush orders can be accommodated in 7–14 days for in-stock material.
