Super White is an elite grade dolomite that comes from Italy or Brazil. It is extremely popular due to its stunning, classic marble look. The soft greys give an icy three-dimensional appearance that suits most installations and environments whilst still being the centrepiece.
Dolomite is a sedimentary metamorphic (rock that has undergone transformation by heat, pressure, or other natural agencies, e.g. in the folding of strata or the nearby intrusion of igneous rocks) stone. Sometimes called Dolostone to differentiate it from the mineral dolomite. Formed from limestone subjected to heat and pressure and primarily composed of the mineral calcite, it is not as porous as marble.
It is similar in appearance to marble and offers another choice in our extensive range and have proven to be popular.
Finishes available generally are polished (high gloss), honed (matt/satin) and in some stones leathered (a leather look and texture).
One of the largest exposures of dolomite rock is the Dolomites in northeastern Italy forming part of the Italian Alps.
