NESSUS

Nessus: Exceptional Density & Refined Beauty in Greek Marble

Nessus is a remarkable Greek marble distinguished by its exceptional physical properties and refined aesthetic character. An exceptionally hard, dense, and crystalline fine-grained calcite marble, Nessus presents in white to white-beige and white-gold tones — a warm, luminous palette that adds understated luxury to any architectural application.

Non-porous with low water absorption, Nessus is as technically outstanding as it is beautiful. Its clouds or veins yield an exquisite result in all slab types, while its color and veining vary subtly according to how the marble is cut, offering designers a degree of flexibility within a consistent high-quality material.
