Description
The veins in Portoro marble look like a web of liquid gold and a creamy white in a sea of black. This sophisticated combination makes it attractive, as these colors have always suggested elegance and luxury. Portoro was one of the types of marble most commonly used in villas and temples during Roman times, and has maintained and strengthened its reputation over the centuries. The richness, intensity and contrast that he conveys with his colors and veins are mesmerizing. It is the material of choice for many architects, builders and designers.
