2cm Antolini Ceppo Beige Avorio EF299 marble slab, honed, 63 by 114 inches, ivory field broken by taupe and oatmeal clasts with a few darker grey fragments, lifted on a forklift against a brick wall at the Royal Stone yard in Los Angeles

Ceppo is the stone of fragments — a limestone matrix in which whole pebbles, shells, and older stone are bound together over millions of years. Ceppo Beige Avorio EF299, freshly arrived from Antolini, is a warm, ivory-leaning expression of that geology: a soft beige ground broken by larger taupe and oatmeal clasts, with occasional pale veins drifting through the matrix.

The honing keeps the surface matte and architectural — no glare, no reflection — which lets the brecciation read clearly across a long countertop or a full wall of cladding.
From the slab arrival, May 2026

This slab is 2cm thick, 63 by 114 inches, finished honed. The honing keeps the surface matte and architectural — no glare, no reflection — which lets the brecciation read clearly across a long countertop or a full wall of cladding. It sits comfortably alongside rift oak, plaster, unlacquered brass, and blackened steel.

On display at the Royal Stone yard on Sepulveda. Come see it under daylight before it moves.
