Wooden White gains its name from the natural occurring, grain-like veining throughout the marble. This veining is accented by random, perpendicular fault lines, each one created when the Turkish mountain the marble was formed in allowed for other sed iments to enter and petrify. The stone's light, neutral tones make it a flexible and popular choice. These thin stone slabs make an already gorgeous marble even more desirable. A full 40 square feet of uninterrupted, groutless marble exists in eac h 5x8 slab. Being only 1/4 inch thick, this slab is lighter per square foot than regular tile or marble slab, thus enabling you to place slabs of stone on vertical surfaces at an affordable price.
