Plithra
Plithra Marble – Exotic Grey-Black Marble with Swirling Silver Veins from India
Plithra Marble is an exotic Indian marble quarried in Rajasthan, admired for its deep grey-black canvas with smoky white and silver mineral swirls. Its cloudy, storm-like movement makes it a dramatic choice for feature walls, flooring, and luxurious interior projects.
Unlike softer marbles, Plithra is a dolomitic marble with higher quartz content, giving it greater strength and durability. This makes it more resistant to scratches and etching, though sealing is recommended for countertops. Available in polished, honed, and leathered finishes, it adapts well to both modern high-contrast interiors and classic luxury designs.
Highly favored by designers, Plithra is often used in hotel lobbies, residential flooring, bathroom walls, and statement kitchen islands, bringing bold elegance and a sense of depth to spaces.
